Installation Information:
When installing SIMONIS
cloth, be sure to put the MARKED SIDE UP. This smooth side has printing on the
edge with the grade, i.e. SIMONIS 860. This is the playing surface of the
cloth. (The back of the cloth is not sheared as fine and is slightly
fuzzy)
Q. SIMONIS cloth is
harder to stretch than other cloths.
A. This is true and it
is intentional. Simonis goes to great
lengths to ensure that our cloth stays within small, specified ranges of
extension and elasticity. The benefit of this precision tolerancing is that,
once the cloth is properly installed, it will not loosen or require
re-stretching like many lesser quality cloths require and any small damage to
the playfield will not grow or spread as it does in these lesser quality
cloths.
SIMONIS cloth is meant
to be installed tightly over the surface of the slate. This not only provides
the best playing conditions, but it will ultimately increase the usable life of
your cloth and your enjoyment of the game.
The Simonis Green Story
When Iwan Simonis
started to become increasingly popular in the U.S. market in the early 80's,
the typical color for cloth in commercial rooms was a blue-green color,
commonly referred to as American green or traditional green.
In order to make it
clear that a room was using something different, we offered our yellow-green
cloth to the commercial rooms. The yellow-green cloth is brighter than the
blue-green cloth and it was apparent at a glance that the tables were covered
in something different. As years passed, players and room owners began to use
the term "Simonis Green" to tell people what color cloth they were
referring to. Today, Simonis Green is what we call our yellow
green billiard cloth.
Marking
Every roll of original
IWAN SIMONIS cloth has 3 different markings which guarantee the authenticity of
the product:
Next to the selvedge/side of the cloth there is alternatively every approx. 60 cm :
1. The IWAN SIMONIS well known signature logo
2. The IWAN SIMONIS name in block letters with the product name (860 for instance). These two markings which used to be printed in white color until August 2007 are since then laser-printed in gold color
3. A mark showing IWAN SIMONIS name in block letters followed by the serial number of the roll (ID number) is also printed in the middle of the width of every meter of cloth. This indelibly U.V. marking is only visible in black light (U.V.light)
