After buying a table tennis table, some friends may wonder: How should the table be maintained so that it can be used better? Today Xiaoyu brings you some tips on table maintenance, come and learn together!

#What types of tables are there?

Generally speaking, billiard tables can be divided into indoor billiard tables and outdoor billiard tables. Due to the different places of use, the two types of tables are slightly different.

Weight: Outdoor table tennis tables are generally heavy, and they are fixed and cannot be moved easily. Indoor table tennis tables are relatively lightweight and can be moved or folded. For example, the rolling single-folding table and the overall folding table can be folded to save space and are easy to move and adjust at any time.

Strength: Outdoors are often exposed to wind and rain, so table tennis tables are required to be heat-resistant, cold-resistant and have strong corrosion resistance. Indoor table tennis tables are generally durable. Due to the different manufacturing processes of indoor and outdoor tables, the maintenance methods of the two tables are also different.

#Indoor table "defense battle"

For indoor table tennis tables, the most important thing in the "defense battle" is to protect the paint film on the table surface.

Place items reasonably: The paint surface of the table tennis table uses a special process. Things with higher temperatures can easily damage the paint film on the surface of the table, so hot water cups, hot bowls and other items should not be placed on the indoor table. Sharp objects can easily scratch the paint surface, and heavy objects may cause uneven stress on the countertop, affect the flatness, or even damage the bracket, so they should not be placed on the countertop.

Reasonable storage of the table: Due to space constraints, the indoor table needs to be folded when not in use. At this time, remember to place a soft cloth or foam paper or other flexible object in the middle to protect the paint film coating on the table.

Clean the table properly: If the table has been left for a long time and has accumulated dust, you can use a feather duster to dust it off; any stains that have adhered to the table after use can be removed by gently wiping it with a wrung-out wet rag. After wiping with a wet rag, do not leave it on the paint surface of the table for a long time to avoid damage to the paint surface.

#Outdoor table "strategy method"

Due to the special production process, the outdoor table can be waterproof and sunproof. Although it is "iron-skeletal" and not afraid of high temperatures and humidity, it still needs protection.

Check the tripod and pulleys: It is difficult to move and carry the outdoor table. The tripod is generally equipped with pulleys. Therefore, be sure to check whether the brakes of the table foot pulleys are loosened when moving and stowing. Otherwise, the pulleys may be damaged by pulling hard. Try not to drag the table on uneven ground to avoid damaging the table.

Check the connections: A professional table comes with many parts and connections. The outdoor environment is complex and components are easily damaged. Therefore, regular inspection of the connection parts and timely maintenance can extend the service life of the table.

Correct placement and cleaning: Sun, rain, strong wind and accidental bumps are common problems faced by outdoor tables. Incorrectly using dry cloth and paper to wipe the table vigorously may also cause wear and tear on the table. The table should be placed in a dry place away from direct sunlight and cleaned with a damp cloth to avoid moisture or wear on the table.
