ABout 99% of Columbia-based balls are sanded to 500 or 600 grit and then have what they calla 1500 grit or a 2000 grit polish (using Degree Polish).

I also remember the Amp coming with a high gloss polish, not a matte finish. The one local cranker I saw who had one had a polished one and he never touched the stock surface of his balls.
