Microfiber Cloth for Billiards

To properly clean pool table balls, start with a dry microfiber cloth for billiards to knock off loose chalk—skipping this step grinds debris into the surface. Next, lightly dampen a fresh microfiber with lukewarm water and a pea-sized dot of mild soap (avoid harsh cleaners). Gently wipe in circles to lift grime without scratching, focusing on grooves. Immediately dry with another clean microfiber to prevent water spots and chalk buildup. Never soak or air-dry balls, as moisture warps them and attracts chalk. For stubborn chalk on pool balls, use a soft-bristle toothbrush (pool-only!). Proper cleaning ensures smooth rolls, extends ball life, and keeps your game consistent. Skip bar napkins or paper towels—they scratch and smear. Remember: dry first, dampen lightly, buff carefully, and dry fast.
