Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the life of your Winmau Blackout darts, treat them as a high-precision tool.
- Storage: Always store your darts in the provided box when not in use to prevent the barrels from knocking against each other and damaging the coating.
- Compatibility: The barrels feature standard threading, making them compatible with most aftermarket shafts and flights, allowing you to customize your setup to match your preferred flight speed.
- Cleaning: Wipe the barrels periodically with a dry, soft cloth to remove skin oils and chalk dust, which can compromise the grip over time. Avoid using abrasive cleaning agents that could strip the black finish.
