Would a lint brush work???

[Maniac]

I've been curious for a while about whether or not a lint brush would work for picking up the minute fibers/chalk dust off the playing cloth of my table. I'm afraid to try it because most of the advertised lint rollers I see are marketed as "extra sticky", and I'm afraid of leaving a residue on my cloth.

Anyone ever tried one? Opinions?

lint rollers work fine

I use a lint roller (the sticky paper thing) in addition to Chalk Off and a squeegie. Lint roller first, then the chalk off.

Works wonders and the roller picks up a ton of crud.

Table is cleaned and dry in about 5 minutes.

I’ve tried and it works. I even went a steps further and wrapped a wooden rolling pin with super sticky foil tape. It doesn’t last long but after a few times going over it…Johnny Archer himself would give it a lint free stamp of approval.

Just vacuum it.

Just vacuum it.

I do. But for the occasional time between vacuuming when there are a few fiber/hairs on the table when chalk powder isn't the issue is why I'm asking.

Lint brushes… get a large roll and some refills. Roll gently. They work great.

I agree. For a quik clean after a sesseion there's no need to drag the vac out every time. Its amazing how much these things pull up.

I use them. No problem. quick brush and roller work great when you don't feel like vacuuming. 3M six packs at Sam's club

This looks like it would work well at a good price with the paint roller style handle and layout:

Those are 6.5" wide (normal lint roller is 4").

That got me searching for something even wider. These are 8" wide, widest I could find - a little more $ but 3M brand: https://amzn.to/3HJpcWN

I have one for the cars floor mats … about 12” wide

From a dog hair perspective, do a search for the green sticky silicon rollers. You rinse under hot water to clean for the next use. Might test on an old table first to see if it leaves any residue.
