How Do I Safely Clean a Good Table Tennis Racket?
The rubber on table tennis paddles is particularly susceptible to dust and oils. As your hand sweats during play, the buildup gathers on the paddle and can affect the way it plays. While some players like the extra stickiness that dirt provides, it is illegal in official table tennis competitions to have anything on the paddle that changes the rubber. For this reason and the long-term durability of your paddle, take the time to regularly clean it with a sponge and water or with a light cleaning solution.
