I have both a Phaze 4 and Phaze 5. Was wondering if anyone has tried to remove the Reacta Shine from the factory. What have you used? What was the result? Read somewhere to use a 1500 pad than use Storm's Step 2. Thanks for any information.

Thanks for you reply.

I originally liked the reacta gloss finish on my Phaze 5 although I thought the ball was a bit weaker than I had anticipated.  When the ball needed to be re-polished, I hit it with a 2000 pad and then used Powerhouse factory shine, to me, this was more like Storms old 1500 polish which I had always liked.

Just got an Exotic Gem, used it for 2 games with reacta gloss, it was weak and lazy (compared to what I expected), 2000 pad and Powerhouse shine and bam, the ball is what I expected, strong throughout the lane with a good motion of the end of the pattern.

Going forward, I won't throw a polished ball until I change the surface.
