Cleaning table tennis bat

Equipment

Maverick Teo Asked 17 years ago

I have been using my table tennis bat for 4 years, and it has gotten mouldy and really dusty.Even after watching your video on how to clean the bat, I can't keep mine clean.So should I get a new one?

Hi Maverick,

If you can't get any grip on your bat after cleaning it is probably time to get a new one.

The rubber is probably dead either from use or from heat or dirt. After cleaning rub your finger over the surface. If it doesn't grip your finger at all it is officially gone.

Sounds like time to upgrade.

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!
