How to Use and Maintain Siscaa Genius 8mm Carrom Coins

Siscaa Genius coins are low-maintenance but benefit from simple care routines that keep play consistent and prolong lifespan.

1. Unpack & Inventory
   Open the plastic box and confirm the full coin set is present. Typical sets include 24 coins and a queen coin depending on the packaging — verify your box contents upon receipt.

2. Prepare the Board
   Clean the carrom board surface of dust and old powder using a soft brush or dry cloth. A clean surface ensures the coins glide predictably and reduces accidental scratches.

3. Positioning & Play
   Use standard carrom setup rules to place coins in the centre circle. Begin with light strikes to feel the coins’ rebound and adjust striking power based on how the coins glide on your board.

4. Apply Powder Sparingly
   If glide is sluggish, apply a small amount of carrom powder to the board (not directly on the coins). Excess powder can reduce control, so apply sparingly and distribute evenly with a brush.

5. Cleaning the Coins
   After extended sessions, wipe coins with a dry, lint-free cloth to remove powder and debris. For sticky residue, lightly dampen the cloth with water, wipe, then dry thoroughly before storing.

6. Storage
   Return coins to the plastic box after use. Store the box in a dry, cool area away from direct sunlight and heavy objects that could deform the coins.

7. Troubleshooting

   • Coins stick or don’t glide: Clean the board surface and coins, reapply a small amount of powder, and retest.

   • Coins show signs of wear: Inspect for chipping or warping and replace damaged coins to maintain fair play.

   • Box is cracked: Move coins to a temporary container to avoid losing pieces and order replacement packaging.

Following these steps will keep your Siscaa Genius coins performing like new and extend their service life for regular practice and club use.

The Siscaa Genius 8mm Carrom Coins are best for beginners, coaching centres, family game nights, and club practice where durable, consistent coins are needed. Their 8 mm thickness provides a familiar weight and rebound that helps newcomers develop control while allowing coaches to run repetitive drills without rapid coin deterioration. The protective plastic box makes the set portable and ideal for clubs and resorts that store multiple sets and move equipment between rooms. For the UAE market—where indoor recreation is popular—these coins offer an affordable, low-maintenance accessory that supports regular play in homes, youth centres, and community halls. They’re also useful as spare or travel sets for tournament players who want reliable practice gear.

Q1: What is the thickness of Siscaa Genius Carrom Coins?
The Siscaa Genius carrom coins are 8 mm thick, which is a common practice thickness used by many players and clubs. At 8 mm, coins balance weight and glide to provide predictable rebounds on both English and Indian ply carrom boards. This thickness helps beginners learn control while providing enough mass for accurate striking. If you require a different thickness for tournament regulations, check event specifications before purchase.

Q2: Are Siscaa Genius Carrom Coins approved for tournaments?
Sellers often list the Genius coins as approved by top carrom sporting authorities, which indicates they meet common practice and club standards. However, formal tournament approval can vary by federation and event. If you need them for official competition, verify with the event organizer or the national carrom federation to confirm acceptance. For practice and club use, these coins are widely accepted and used.

Q3: Can Siscaa Genius coins be used on both English and Indian plywood boards?
Yes. The Siscaa Genius 8mm coins are designed for compatibility with both English and Indian plywood carrom boards. Their material and finish ensure consistent glide and rebound across common board surfaces, making them versatile for mixed board environments such as coaching centres, clubs, and home setups.

Q4: Which is better, wooden or acrylic carrom coins?
Wooden and acrylic coins each have pros and cons. Wooden coins offer a traditional feel and slightly different friction characteristics, while acrylic/plastic coins (like many Siscaa models) are durable, resistant to wear, and often provide a smoother glide. For beginners and high-use club settings, premium durable plastic coins are practical because they don’t splinter or warp and maintain consistent performance.

Q5: How should I store and maintain Siscaa Genius carrom coins?
Keep the coins in their plastic box when not in use to prevent loss and protect surfaces. Wipe coins periodically with a dry cloth to remove dust and powder residue. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight or heat for prolonged periods to prevent warping or discoloration. Proper storage and light cleaning will extend the coins’ life and preserve consistent glide.
