How to Remove Chalk Marks from Pool Table Felt

The most common suggestion for removing ordinary pool chalk from table felt is to brush it away, but this only serves to spread the dust, not to remove it. Furthermore, this and other popular chalk remedies have the potential to damage the felt itself, as will the chalk if it’s not picked up. Fortunately, there’s an easy solution that will not only remove chalk, but will do so with very little effort on your part.

• Chalk-Off
• Microfiber towel

1. Spray Chalk-Off over the entire felt surface of the pool table. (Cleaning the entire surface is recommended, as chalk residue you can’t see can be just as damaging to the felt as the spots which are easily visible.)
2. Wait for the foam to raise the chalk to the top.
3. Wipe the foam way with a microfiber cloth. Do not scrub with the cloth or it could damage the surface of the felt.
4. Wait 60 seconds for the table to dry before playing again.

• The overspray from Chalk-Off will not harm the rails or pockets. If it occurs, just wipe it away with the soft cloth.
• If you purchase a Chalk-Off kit, one microfiber towel is included.
• While some may recommend to vacuum the chalk away, the suction from the vacuum can be damaging to the surface.
