Cleaning Rubber
Equipment
Henry Lauw Asked 10 years ago
Dear Coach,
Is it safe to clean rubber using alcohol (pure alcohol that sold in pharmachy or store)?
Thank you.

Hi Henry,
I have used the Alcohol wipes to clean rubber which can be OK if used from time to time. I haven't used pure alcohol. Perhaps someone with some experience with this can help... or a chemist that can explain the reaction it may have.

Tone is in Your Fingers
There's is an old saying about guitar playing - tone is in your fingers. And If you've ever seen a really good guitarist play an old guitar then you'll understand how true that saying is. I know we go on a lot about this topic but it is so true. Once you've got yourself a decent bat, it's no longer up to the equipment, it's up to YOU!

I have used 99% isopropyl alcohol for forty years. I find it the best cleaner when used with a fine sponge and left to evaporate. I've never noticed any detrimental effects but I wouldn't use it more than necessary. Water is safer but the alcohol is nice before a tournament, optimum spin. Cheers
Thanks Peter.
