Snooker ball cleaner

#1 · January 22, 2024, 11:41 pm

Hi All

Does any of the teams out there possess a Snooker ball cleaner machine ?

Im sure like all other clubs we have match balls and members club balls that could all do with a good clean but no-one wants the job of doing it. If anyone has one would they accept a small fee for doing a few sets of balls.

If there is not one would the committee be willing to buy one that all the clubs could use (again for a small fee) i'm sure it would pay for itself over time and give some much needed match balls a good shine.

(Clubs would supply their own Arimuth ball cleaner)

Derry,

I agree would be good to have. Let me look into options.

Found this online have uploaded pics for everyone to see would be great to get something like this for all the Clubs balls I reckon it would make a huge difference and £200 is a bargain 👍😁👍 and if not I'm sure all clubs would contribute towards one or 2 machines 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

What's everybody's thoughts on this for the future 🤔🤔🤔

I looked through some of the forums and the cheaper ones might be fine for occasional cleaning but the 4th Gen ones are more commercial and hard wearing if you are doing a lot of balls. more expensive but probably worth the extra £100

Hi all

Niggbay has bit the bullet and purchased the 4th Gen ball cleaner. Any club that needs their match balls or club balls cleaned can take them along to Nigg on a Tuesday for a clean or alternatively I can come to your club and do it.

1 set for £5

3 sets for £10

pm me on 07549947502 if this is something your club would like. our regular social members in the pool and snooker room noticed a difference right away.
