Sweat or perspiration from the player’s hand often causes the dart to corrode. This reduces the life of the darts. In order to prolong the life of your dart, it is very important to regularly clean it. You can do this by using a cleaner that can eliminate oil. You can use moist towels that are alcohol-based. Aside from prolonging the life of your darts, regular cleaning can also bring back the grip as it eradicates the slippery or greasy feeling caused by accumulated sweat and dirt.
