How to Take Care of Air Hockey Games

Instructions

    • 1

      Remove any pucks or hockey mallets from the table surface.

    • 2

      Put a small amount of polish solution onto the soft cloth, then rub both sides of the pucks to create less friction when sliding on the surface. Place the pucks aside.

    • 3

      Begin to clean the hockey mallets by removing lint or dirt from the soft bottom. Place the mallets aside.

    • 4

      Pour a small amount of polish onto the cloth. Starting from one end of the table, work your way to the other end by applying light pressure and using circular movements to clean the surface.

    • 5

      With another soft cloth, wipe down any excess polish so the table dries quickly.

Tips & Warnings

  • Routine cleanups and maintenance of your air hockey table, pucks and handles will prolong their life.

  • Put the solution on the cloth, not on the table surface. This will prevent a mess. Use more if needed.

  • Do not clean your table with water or other chemicals not specified for the plastic table tops.

  • Do not pour the polish solution onto the table. It can leak through the tiny holes of the table and damage it.
