If you’re like most people, you probably don’t think much about cleaning a basketball. After all, it’s just a piece of plastic and rubber, right? Wrong. A dirty basketball can cause serious damage to your flooring and can even lead to injuries. Here are four easy steps to cleaning your ball:

  1. Wet the ball thoroughly before cleaning. This will help remove any dirt, dust, or debris that may be embedded in the surface.
  2. Use a mild soap or detergent and water mixture to clean the ball. Make sure to use circular motions to avoid scrubbing too hard on the surface.
  3. Rinse the ball off with clean water and dry it off completely before storing it away. Be sure not to leave water spots on the ball or on the floor where it was played; these will create moisture problems over time. ..
