David Hodges' "Quick-Clean" Pool Table Cleaner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)It's a great idea but doesn't work in practice. Either the nozzle on the can is poorly designed or there is some issue with quality control, but I have tried cleaning my table with three of these cans now and every time, glops of foam dripped from the nozzle onto my cloth and ended up leaving an unsightly stain. The can (when shaken up well) does dispense an even flow of foam on the table, but also some collects on the nozzle and then drips onto the cloth. I have tried different methods of preventing this but to no effect. Sure the product restores the colour and and gets rid of SOME of the chalk (you still need to vacuum first!) but it takes AGES to dry!
I have just replaced my cloth and will no longer use this product. Instead, I brush the rails, vacuum the table's playing surface, then wipe a DAMP (not wet) cloth gently over it. On a wool cloth, the damp cloth is good for keeping it tight too. I find water dries MUCH faster than the Quick-Clean anyway. Then I vacuum any lint from the cloth I used off the table and it leaves it looking like new! It plays beautifully too. I must say that Quick-Clean is pretty good on the wrap on my cue though. But then again so is (you guessed) WATER! Don't waste your money folks!

Quick-Clean is a remarkable product.It is used primarily to clean pool table cloth, but also works well on cue wraps.Think about this:How do pool table brushes remove the chalk from the table?Answer: They donÕt.They just move the chalk around, and push it to the underside of the cloth.Chalk is silica sand, which is an abrasive.Just think of the grains of chalk cutting away at your cloth as it is squeezed between a billiard ball and the slate.Quick-Clean REMOVES the chalk from the table.Simply mist the pool table cloth with Quick-Clean, and watch as the foam raises the chalk right to the top!Wipe it off with a clean rag and you are ready to play.It doesnÕt even dampen the cloth!Quick-Clean is being used at most major tournaments, where they want to extend the life of their expensive Simonis cloth.ShouldnÕt you protect your cloth, too?

Sardo Tight Rack - M5000 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Bought this product because it was very difficult to get a consistent tight rack for the break. The Sardo Tight Rack is extremely easy to use and is very consistent in securing the balls for the break. It does what it is advertised to do.

The Sardo M-5000 was the Official Rack of the US Open 9-Ball Championship and Derby City Classic in 2005.The Sardo M-5000 Rack is made of durable, carbonite plastic which makes the unit extremely durable and sturdy. The side wings and base are all one piece.There are numerous advantages and reasons to use the Sardo M-5000 Rack. Some of these advantages are that the Sardo M-5000 is only 4 inches from the surface of the table (compared to 7 inches for the M-3000). The new Sardo M-5000 Rack weighs only 1 and one-half pounds (compared to 3 and one-half pounds for the M-3000). The balls are visible by looking directly through a maze of pressure pins which eliminates any possibility of glare off any plastic shield. The crystal-looking surface of the Sardo M-5000 Rack makes it beautiful as well as sturdy.

Jim Rempe Billiard Training Ball Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I found that this training aid had two benefits. The first was that it gave you a very specific point to reference on the cue ball. It makes you realize how big the cue ball really is and gives an aid in fine tuneing your shot. The other thing that I found beneficial was realizing how low you could hit the cue ball to maximize draw. I didn't realize that the cue ball could be struck so low. With a well shaped and chalked cue tip, you can really make the ball return. I would recommend this product. It won't make a good pool game alone; however, it is a good tool if you are willing to invest the time in practicing.

The Jim Rempe training ball set includes a 2-sided 2-1/4" training cue ball and an instructional booklet. The Jim Rempe Ball has a beginner and an advanced player side to assist you in your progress. The two unique ball patterns will help you see where to hit the cue ball for spin (English); develop a better stroke by teaching a more accurate delivery of your cue stick to the cue ball; and optimize the rebound angle on ball and cushion for a better position on the next shot.
