This should help answer your questions:
"•Out of the Box: With its Rough Buff finish, the Total Inferno will match up well on medium to oily lane conditions.
•When dulled:. Shiny surface finishes sometimes cause the ball to go too long before breaking. To get your Total Inferno rolling sooner, dull the surface with a Scotch-brite™ grey pad, or similar abrasive, to increase hooking action. To further increase hooking action, use a rougher abrasive to create an earlier reaction. Dulling your Total Inferno will increase its hooking action and its arc will become more even, creating a better match-up for oily lane conditions. Dulling also helps to blend the over/under reactions seen on wet/dry lane conditions.
To bring your Total Inferno back to its original factory finish, sand the surface to 220-grit then use Brunswick’s Factory Finish Rough Buff."
Good luck.
