Tacky Rubbers tackiness goes away after a few sessions, even with cleaning.

I clean them with this Yinhe Rubber Cleaner bottle with a sponge on top. I apply whatever it is on the bottle (seems like soap lol) and wait for like 15 seconds, and then dry it with another sponge. I do this always at the end of my sessions and then put on the white plastic film that comes with it on the packaging.

I think some of the cleaners use soap to remove oils from your hands on the rubber, which is a good thing....but then you have soap on your rubber. For that reason, I use them sparingly and then use plain water to take the soap off. You may also have a buildup of that soap in your sponge, so rinse that out too.

Both my Rakza Z still hold the ball after over a year, way more than H3 and O9C

I will definitely try to get one of this. Thank you for the suggestion

i would not bother, it is not the cleaner that keeps the tackiness it is indeed the clear plastic covers applied to the rubbers after cleaning just with water and drying. And forget the sponges too, they are too rough. Use the palm of your hand to wipe off the water or the inside of your lower arm.

Maybe DHS has something that restores tackiness... Found that in their 2025 catalogue / 2025 Details of DHS T.T. Products (in Chinese language).pdf
