Cleaning my Bat

Equipment

Vineet Pandya Asked 14 years ago

Dear Alois Rosario and Jeff Plumb,

I had a question regarding the cleaning of my rubbers... How often do I clean my bat? Can I do it after every session??

Regards,

Vineet Pandya

Hi Vineet,

You should clean your bat after each session. All you need to do is wipe it with a damp sponge or soft cloth to get the dirt and dust off it. That will prolong the life of your rubber.

Choosing a Table Tennis Bat

Make sure you buy a table tennis bat that is suitable for your level and allows you to develop your technique. For your first bat we recommend the PingSkills Rook, and when you upgrade to a custom bat we recommend the PingSkills Touch with Mark V or Rakza 7.

I heard somewhere that applying water daily can make one's rubber dead.. Is it so?

Hi Vineet,
No it won't. Just don't leave a lot of water on the bat for a long time. After you wipe it with the damp cloth, dry it off.
