Always keep your cue in a good quality case (ideally a rigid box type).
When storing your cue, if you are not using a case do not leave it leaning against a wall or in a corner, as this can cause it to bend. Always lay your cue flat or store it in a cue rack.
Do not store cue and case near to a heat source e.g. near a radiator or direct sunlight.
Do not leave your cue in a car boot as it is hot during the day and cold and damp at night, rapid temperature and humidity changes are bad for the cue.
During play wipe the cue with a dry cue cloth, if the cue becomes sticky, wipe it down with a slightly damp cloth and buff dry immediately. Also see Cleaning Your cue video..
Never use sand paper on the cue, this removes the protective sealer from the shaft leaving the wood exposed, this will allow the shaft to dry out or absorb moisture. Sanding also gradually wears away the cue shaft, especially with Ash cues where the dark grain is softer than light wood, it can make the cue uneven.
Occasionally, (3-6 months depending on the amount you play) treat the cue with raw linseed oil. Wipe cue down with a damp cloth and dry. Do not use a lot of water or this can cause the cue to swell. Apply oil onto cue with a cloth or paper towel, leave overnight to soak in. Wipe off surplus oil and buff cue with clean cloths until smooth and dry and no residue oil is visible on a clean cloth. If the cue feels sticky wipe with damp cloth and dry and buff.
If cue is jointed, occasionally clean brass faces of joint with very fine wire wool (00-00 grade). Dirt or grease on the faces of joint can affect the contact and sound when striking cue ball.
