' Guys, Zpinz spit on my rubbers when I asked him to clean them. I told him to stop but he said "it works don't worry" and spit on my rubbers again to clean them. Lmao!!

lmao yes, i did spit on his rubber. but at least i got it clean lmao.

This question has been asked before, and the answer is always something like
H2O2 and
Charcoal lighter fluid
now you can add PO.

Shouldn't be a problem if you soak it with enough water.  Besides, the cheap toilet papers at the clubs I play are pretty rough.  Good for rubber cleaning but terrible for our *ss

during play, just breathe on it and wipe off.

lol guys i did something very smart. i got a brand new sponge whiped my paddle got it clean. here is the good part. i got my ziploc bag and i cut it in two.now i'm using the ziploc bags to cover the ziploc bags to cover my paddle from making more dust. but thank you guys very much all your posts helped. you guys rock.

There is so much dust in the air it starts getting to your rubber instantly as it's exposed to the elements.  Put a protective adhesive film over as quickly as possible when done cleaning.

guys be careful with that dihydrogen monoxide stuff. its dangerous 0.0

use H2O bad experience with cleaners 

The only method I recommend for cleaning your bat is to breathe heavily onto your rubber creating some moisture and then simply wipe it with your hand. This of course assumes that your hands are clean and you haven�t just finished downing a greasy souvlaki for lunch. Take a look at the video on my blog (address below) to see how easy and effective this is. Of course you can buy a specialised rubber cleaner which will also work well but why spend the money. And what do you do in the middle of a match if you drop your bat on the floor and it picks up some dust? It�s not really easy to pull out your rubber cleaner. So learn how to clean it in seconds by breathing on it and you are set for life.

first of all use a clean sponge, dont buy those expensive sponges that these people are selling, just go to you local walmart and get those sponges that women use to put makeup on, they are very soft and most of all its really cheap, like 2 bucks for a big bag of 36 pieces, and they are washable too, on cleaning agent, the best will be in your case is to use the YASAKA recomended cleaner, WATER is ok too, but i would recomend using filtered water, like 25cent a gallon, so that it is free from minerals and clorine.
