Title: best surface for dirty bomb
Post by: APheLion on January 26, 2010, 03:58:31 AM
i have tried couple of finish, but the ball hits like a potato...

it was ok when it was OOB, but after that its pretty much dead... it doesnt even have that many games on it

whats would be the best? 2000 + polish?

When a house bowler misses the mark, misses the break point and strike, for many ppl its called a wallshot. When a pro does that its call adjustment

When a house bowler gets his finger stuck in the ball and fall on the lanes, for many ppl its called lame bowler. When a pro does that its called the Machuga flop! ha i like this one.

Dirty Bomb?  That sounds like something one leaves in the toilet after eating Bell Taco...

That one has a Brunswick cover, if I remember correctly? Do you know which one? Could it be Activator+? Then I'd recommend a thorough oil extraction, and then apply Brunswick's Rough Buff compound or a 4.000 grit Abralon surface.

Additionally, are you sure that the drilling is O.K., and that the ball reacts properly? A change of PAP could have affected the setup, so that the ball does not react the same anymore - another potential (though hardly to expect) source for your problem.
