Posting this so may help keep our billiard tables in better condition. Don’t be caulk grinder, it only wears out caulk faster, creating dust cloud and filling table full of caulk dust making table and balls dirty. One reasons can’t draw or follow on dirty table. Also reduces ball skid.

So, if wondering why some pool tables in villages are dirty and rail embedded with caulk we maybe the problem? Don’t be caulk grinder over table or rails. Or place caulk upside down on table, that’s just making table dirty and wearing out caulk faster by grinding into tables.

Here what 6 month old caulk looks like when properly caulked cue. And yes I buy my own caulk. Notice there no tunnel bored into caulk.
Gently chalk up. A little goes a long way.
