I VACUUM My POOL TABLE! Deep CLEAN my DIAMOND Table ! 

I have found quite a difference with my aiming and make % when playing on clean surfaces vs the dirty tables / balls in most bar setups. My setup at home is pristine but I always come down a notch when playing league and seem to miss the simple ones. Any tips on aiming thicker / thinner between the two?

Little Timmy said, Maybe you should clean up your act instead of your table so you will get out of apa Jail. 🤣🤣🤣 just kidding bro keep up the good work. Hope you get reinstated soon.

As for the ball polisher, I tried a Harbor freight polisher, or should I say tried 3 of them, They break up. I ended up using a Ryobi buffer with the battery pack harbor freight buffing pad and the 5 gallon bucket with side cut out to reach the power switch and two two by four pieces holding up the handles of the polisher(screwed them to the side of the bucket. Used nylon type carpet on the sides hooked in with velcro and carpet tape. Seems to been working well no plastic parts coming off the polisher. Use Carnuba wax, pea size drop on every ball, run 8 balls at a time. Then when finished I use 409 and paper towels to clean off the buffer pad surface because it gets super grimey.

The camera work in the beginning of this video gave me permanent vertigo. Thanks a lot!

Good video Josh. Re the felt direction, this is mainly for snooker tables which have a much thicker nap than pool tables and need to be brushed from balk/baulk end to the bottom end. Then ironed ideally with a heavy table iron, again in 1 direction and consistently.

So for the rails I use alcohol to dissolve any left over polish and hand oils. I have tried that wax out but it doesn't bring out the shine as good as the pledge. After using like 5 different polishes including the recommended bees wax. Pledge for the win. For cloth woolite and distilled water. Also not a bad idea to open the access doors and put some compressed air down pockets. You will be surprised at what comes out.

I was really hoping you were going to bring out a pressure washer but I can live with the vacuum🤣👍🏻

First just wanted to say love watching your videos, only been following for a month or so but I have watched a decent bit of content. Also need to say I've only been really playing somewhat seriously for about 3 months or so and before that mainly messed around on a table that my grandfather had as a kid with my brother(who is the person that recently got me into APA) Just recently bought a cheap Valley 7FT barbox for my brother and I to practice on so i wanted to know how to properly care for a table so I did a bit of research. Few complaints of mine would be i dont see much point in brushing the table and then vacuuming, vacuum should remove the majority of the chalk built up in the cloth and brushing before vacuuming will just cause the ball return to just get more dirty. Brushing after vaccuming would make more sense since part of the reason to brush is to get the cloth all the running the same way so the balls roll true(I believe you should always brush in the direction you break from), although probably not much issue with a higher quality cloth like Simmonis. Don't recommend putting those bolts with those sharp looking washers on a tightly stretched cloth. I know the whole vaccum use can be a bit of a debate but I have no idea why you would actually put your entire vaccum cleaner on the table instead of just buying horsehair vaccum attatchment for the hose of your vaccum and use that specifically for the pool table.(people say the one that comes with a Dyson is the best)Quite cheap and less likely to damamge the cloth. I've seen people recommend spray a away foaming glass cleaner on both rails and on the cloth, no experience with it though. I certainly wouldn't spray that wax directly onto the rail, as to not potentially get any on the cloth I'd spray it on a rag first. I hope its not the body of that LO that got you temporarily banned from APA you're hiding in the closet 😂. Also I wouldn't mind seeing more of those mic'd up videos, thought the one I saw with Mike(Or Eric?) was pretty entertaining!

This should get more views. The dude is very energetic!

i've always vacuumed my tables too - always seems the best for me.. i have a handheld dirt devil that does the trick nicely.

1. Agree sorta on the X1, if you are brushing and vacuuming and using the cue silk, that is better, but I've found (at least in my exp) using the X1 as intended is better than using a brush by itself. 2. Cue silk is good stuff, been using it for over a year, every month or so. 3, yeah, make yourself a ball polisher as you said in another comment, got a diamond BP about 6 months ago, and polish every week, and it makes a big difference, crazy how much stuff gets on the balls, and then transfers to the cloth, helps keep the cloth cleaner too. keep it up my man

Weird question, but why do some pool tables have a quarter nested in between the slate and rail?

Where do you get your table spots?! Those white ones are clean.

No need to take the rails of get a horse hair brush extension on you vacuum wond . Vacuum the cloth and rails. The take the X-1 device sold for simonis cloth to clean further. Last step take one part woolite to 10 parts cold water and lightly dampen a microfiber towel and wipe the cloth and rails. Works well for my two diamond tables in my basement.

I bought the Simonis X-1 a year or two ago, and to be honest, I forgot I had it until this video. I used it a few times when I got it and I could not tell the difference after using it. It was and is a waste of $100. I wish I would have never bought it. You're going to love this, but I bought it because FX Billiards said it worked well. I think he was maybe trying to get Simonis to sponsor him, even tho he already had (has) Predator as a sponsor.

Good Work Josh! 💪🏽

Does Maguires handle beer stains?

If APA doesn't reinstate you soon,I bet we will be watching videos of you cleaning the lint trap in the drier in the coming weeks.

unrelated to this video but did you get the apa issue resolved. did you get re instated?

Table turned out great Josh. 🤩👍

What size table do you have, and what's the size of your room. I'm thinking of getting a 7ft diamond but will have to get some 52" sticks to deal with my 12`6" wide room.

I do the same thing. The only difference is I use a different vacuum and a differenrent cleaner I use quick clean. . I also clean after every match.

Only recommendation is to not wear a hoodie when doing this as you were sweating so damn much, you probably lost 2 pounds lol.

Hey Josh. Spray some hair spray on the cloth then. Use a vacuum on the table a lot of the dirt and chalk will stick to the hairspray. Then clean the cloth like you did with that spray you used.

As mutch as you play Josh that should probably be done more often lol! Nothing easy when it comes to a pool table! Keep up the good work Josh!

Hello from Ohio. Im coming to Rochester Hills later today and staying until Thursday. I think we’re about a half hour drive away. I’ll be bringing my sticks. Let me know if you’re interested in playing some. I’ve gotten hooked on your videos. I enjoy the commentary.

Great video Josh. Glad to see you put some work in :)

Why brush if you are gonna vacuum?

I don't brush my table. I was advised by a friend who reconditions tables that constant brushing reduces the life of the cloth. I just vacuum. It seems you need a ball polisher (insert joke here). Bro, your balls are filthy, lol.
