Is boosting officially permitted in tabletennis?
 

I am new here. I was wondering if boosting is officially permitted in tabletennis.
I only received confusing & conflictng information & advice from many different peoples .
I am interested in official version & the rules that define this process

It would be interesting getting explained what you mean by "conflictng information"?
What zool wrote is obviously true, but maybe there's also some truth in the fact, that "racket coverings" is just another word for "topsheet"... because as far as I know only the topsheet gets approved by ITTF.
If so, it would be unclear if boosting the sponge will always afftect the topsheet (probably not always if done right) or at least it might be hard to decide if a potentially detected chemical affected the topsheet or only the sponge.
Is that a possible "conflict" that you refered to?
