Cerium Oxyde Trizact pad is far more than 1.500 grit. I suppose it is the finest way to sand a ball, and it originally comes from car body preparation for paint jobs for a totally even surface. NAd that's waht this stuff does! It looks polished, but it is not. Great finish: good head length, but leaves the surface and particle load "open" for an early and smooth grip on the lane. Much better to control than a polish, and very well suited for solid reactives when you need length and any carbide particle coverstock when you want maximum length.
I tried my Eliminator with a 1.500 grit wet sanded finish, and it read the lane 5' earlier, had much more traction than OOB and hooked rather in a wide arc. Then, I applied a 2.000 grit finish (probably an Abralon pad, but I am not sure), and now it reacts much like the OOB finish.
