In order to best preserve its qualities, a billiard cloth deserves efficient cleaning. It is for this purpose that Simonis devised and developed a totally innovative accessory: the Simonis X-1. For regular maintenance of the playing surface i.e. the removal of chalk dust, you will no longer need a traditional brush that only moves this dust around on the cloth, nor daily use of a vacuum cleaner that may damage the cloth and the use of which is therefore impractical, nor a maintenance product that is likely to stretch or discolour the cloth or alter its properties. The Simonis X-1 deeply extracts the chalk dust from the baize and retains it in its revolutionary high-tech structure!
