Lots of variables here, but silicone spray is what you need to keep powder on the board. When you use your spray, make sure and shoot it out at a very slight angle (almost parallel to the board) and not at a 45 degree angle or something more severe. Spraying it directly down at the board will create "zebra stripes" that retain the powder, but leave dry spots in between the areas covered.

Other things to consider:

  • what's the relative humidity of your office? Depending on where you live, seasonal changes in humidity can greatly affect the performance of the powder. You can get a cheap ($10), effective hygrometer on Amazon. Try to keep your office / shuffleboard room somewhere between 40-50%. Buy here

  • check your weights (pucks). Your weights may have too much of a bevel on them and they might be "plowing" your powder off the board. Try experimenting with other brands. A 9' board should be using the smaller diameter weights, not 2-5/16" diameter ones.

  • make sure that you are using your shaker to distribute your powder evenly. People in regional / national / international tournaments powder the board twice, once up, once back.

  • no need to buff the silicone spray. If you want, you can just spray it on and roll with it. If you play in tournaments and stuff, they will generally spray the board, throw used powder over the top of it, run the board wipe down and back on the board and dump the "siliconed" powder in the center of the board (in the gutter) so it doesn't get put back on the board. Allowing the siliconed powder to get back on the board may cause "tracking" where your weights will drag a small clump of it and drag your weight to a premature stop. Wiping the board will even out your spray and give you a consistent playing surface. Powder the board (twice) after you wipe the siliconed powder off and you should be good to go for 6-10 games.

    In a hurry. Good luck! Have fun!
