I never thought to buy chalk that matches the cloth color. I played tournaments at the boys and girls club when I was in middle school, and it always bugged me seeing the blue and red chalk on the green cloth. Thanks for that tidbit.
While having a brush is fine for a quick clean, the best thing the clean a pool table with is a handheld vacuum cleaner with a rotating brush. All a handheld brush is doing is moving dirt and chalk. It just spreads it thin so you dont see it, or just puts in into the air and on the floor.. A vacuum actually sucks all that crap up and holds it. And before someone says that will ruin the felt, no it most definitely will not. I know several pool halls that have use vacuums for decades and their felt is just fine. All that chalk has to go somewhere, better into a bag, than all over your house. As for racks - what he calls triangles - I would actually stick to plastic. Wood racks simply get damaged over time. They will get nicks, dents, scratches, etc. Additionally, they can warp in heat and humidity and that can make getting a tight rack of balls harder. He is right that lighting is essential. Style is less as important as coverage.
Cracking video i couldn't stop laughing when the balls polish came up 😂 love your honesty on the standard accessories to the more high quality upgrades look forward to purchasing from you in the future
I've seen the Mosconi Cup Ball set amongst the American Pool balls, also used on TV (I saw that set being used in the World Pool Championships on Sky Sports) and the outer colour on the striped balls are black instead of the usual white, which I thought was quite strange....
But the problem is pool ball solid and stripes? 4 and 12 Purple instead of Pink 7 and 15 Burgundy instead of Brown and Light Blue 5 and 13 Orange instead of Purple 6 and 14 Green instead of Light Green
that's for the Cyclops ball set... from the Aramith Tournament BLACK set 5 and 13 balls are now Purple (instead of Orange). and the dots on its cueball is black (red in regular sets)
Sorry, Leisure Direct, but you have the Aramith Ball Cleaner and Aramith Ball Restorer backwards. According to the description at Pooldawg, "[Restorer] is a more extensive cleaner and works somewhat like a rubbing compound for cars. It's rougher than the Aramith Ball Cleaning Solution. It is also recommended that you would want to use the Aramith Ball Cleaning Solution after the Aramith Ball Restorer is used in order to return the ball back to the original luster." Bottom line, if you want to wear your pool balls down to the size of a pea, just keep using Ball Restorer instead of Ball Cleaner for that regular "touch up."

Why do they need to scrub? While using Quick clean it comes with rolling fluffy thing which looks same as wall painting rollers. So how can they scrub the cloth with it?
@@brianlevandowski3167 We tend not to see too many of the Centennial balls at the showroom (as you can only get them with the Brunswick tables) but as far as we can tell, the only key differences that separate Aramith and the Centennial sets are how they look. The Aramiths are definitely more widely used at the competition level though. :)
I think you're referring to Ramin - The type of wood that's used on the lower end cues. To better answer your question though, ramen tends to be more of a dish of soup, noodles, vegetables and numerous other tasty things. Definitely worth a try if you want a filling meal! We can't recommend a good tonkotsu ramen enough. ;)
I can't sack him. He's a decent guy. Then he'd have no job, lose his house, have no food and take to drugs. A tad harsh for a bit of background noise. We'll try harder next time tho.
