How to maintain the rubber of table tennis bat

After using the racket, wipe the sweat stains on the racket with a dry towel, and wipe the racket with positive glue and reverse glue with a soft cloth after playing the ball. You must pay attention to avoid scratching the rubber surface, and finally stick a layer of nylon paper or a thin soft plastic sheet on the surface.

Put it in a ventilated and dry place. Do not expose it to the sun or near the heater. Because high temperature will cause the sponge and rubber of table tennis bat to age easily after being heated, the viscosity and elasticity will be reduced, and the board will be easily deformed after being heated, which will affect the accuracy of hitting the ball. At the same time, it is necessary to avoid contact between sponge and rubber and gasoline. Once it comes into contact with gasoline, rubber products will deform and deteriorate.

After playing the ball, clean the rubber surface with cotton wool. Wet the collodion with pure water when it is hot, and rub it on the collodion when it is cold. Try to avoid scratching and squeezing the table tennis bat by abnormal external force. When not in use, it is best to put it in a special racket case, and at the same time put a flat plate made of wood or plastic in the racket case to minimize the influence of external force on the racket.

Do not clean rubber with water, because chlorine contained in water will react with rubber, which will easily cause corrosion and oxidation to rubber. It is best to use a special cleaner, which works well in dry winter. However, in wet weather, it is difficult to dry the rubber with detergent, and the protective layer left on the rubber surface is also easy to absorb moisture and dissolve.
