Personal experience has shown washing a pool table felt on HAND WASH cycle (if available on your washer) with minimum detergent & cold water works. Do not use fabric softener. Dry on low heat. Better to dry for longer on a low temp. No dryer sheets!

Sadly this is usually a sign of low quality felt, and you will continue to have problems with it. In the short term I would recommend running a lint brush over it (not the sticky kind) and or using a fuzz shaver, these are made for wool sweaters and are usually available at drug stores like Walgreens. In the long term you will need to replace it. Hope this helps Andie- Americanfeltandcraft.com

It would not be advisable. You need to keep it clean and dry and have nothing on it that could effect the path of a ball. So painting it would be a bad idea.

Can you use felt from Joans for a pool table?

No. Pool table felt is a specialized felt designed specifically for pool tables. There are many variations of table felt and each will react differently with the balls, and each has a differnt lifespan on the table. Use of felt not designed for pool table use will result in poor play at best, and will quickly be destroyed at worst.


Why does pool table felt shed fibers?

Friction. The movement of the rolling pool balls does no damage to the pool felt. However, the pool balls accumulate pool chalk that is very abrasive. The pool chalk accumulated on the balls and dropping on to the felt both result in tearing of the felt fibers as balls are struck or slide on the table. Occasionally balls bounce or are jumped on the table, resulting in even more damage. Damaged felt is a part of playing pool.


Can pool table felt be ripped due to time?

Yes. Like everything else in this world, pool table felt is finite. Eventually after years of having wooden cues grinding against them causing friction, the felt will wear down and eventually rip. A professional can replace the felt on a pool table.

How do you remove Pool Table Felt scratches My daughters friend took a cue and scratched a starburst design into the felt of my pool table. How do I remove the damage?

Most likely the felt is permanently damaged. Go to your local billiards pro shop, or online, and purchase pool table cleaner. If the marks are superficial, a proper cleaning may get rid of them. However, pool table felt is not woven like the fabric used in clothing and can be damaged easily - how easily depends upon the brand and type of felt.
