there is a product i used called Grrrip spray when I first started, but you don’t want to rely on it. As far as tanning, everything leaves a residue if you do it the same day that you will be on the pole. I usually spray tan the day before, shower the next morning, and then pole it up!

I have an x pole and have tried a variety of things for cleaning including alcohol, water, glass cleaner, clorox bleach wipes, and Green Works cleaner by clorox. My pole is gorgeous and I don’t slip! Don’t use the generic version of the Clorox wipes though, they left a residue when I was trying to save a buck.

I have used vodka and baby wipes (but I’m too scared to use acetone on my beautiful x-pole!) but I’ve found that by far the best is glass cleaner!!! I always keep a bottle of it in my room along with a fluffy tea towel, a couple of sprays and a wipe over with the tea towel and my pole is shiny and grippy and lovely!! i love it!!

Hi ladies,

The best combintion to clean the pole I discovered is the following – vodka – very wet towel – dry towel.

Hey ladies,
Great tips! Glass cleaner is very popular along with vinegar and even vodka (although that’s rather expensive to upkeep!)

Lori, sometimes a change of metal can throw people especially if they are used to using a brass or steel in the past.

The stainless steel will get easier, just carry on with it, and make sure its cleaned really well as the steel tends to collect more residue than the brass poles.

I have not danced for about 10 years, but recently got back into it. I realize that it’s going to take a few weeks – mths before I can perform the moves I used to, but I feel that my pole is part of the difficulties I’ve been having. It’s stainless steel and I don’t feel like I’m getting a good grip with it. Is it just part of my relearning or is stainless steel not good? I’ve only danced w/brass in the past…
Thanks-

I use vinegar to clean my pole. It is a natural and more effective alternative to glass cleaner. It does a really good job of cleaning and drying out the pole. Plus, I just love the smell of vinegar. I wouldn’t recommend using acetone. Although we use it on our nails, it is actually a carcinogen. It it very bad for your health, both to breath it and absorb through your skin.

We tend to use the glass cleaner too. I can’t recommend using baby wipes though, I’ve always found that slimey residue inhibits getting a good grip. There’s nothing worse than trying to heng upside down and hold a position when you know you’re slowly going floorwards! LOL
