Pool table care is not that different from caring for any other piece of furniture in your home. Treat the exposed wood parts with a quality grade furniture polish and dust the table on a regular basis. You can treat the outside of the leather pockets with a quality leather oil or saddle soap periodically. DO NOT put anything on the inside of the pocket as that will leave residue on the balls and could affect the roll of the balls. Brushing the cloth on a regular basis, depending on how often you play, will keep away the fuzzy, map balls that can appear on newly “trained” cloth. Use the brush provided with your pool table accessory kit and brush in straight lines and always in the same direction. This will remove any loose fibers and create a smooth, uniform playing surface.
