Lanemasters Ball Cleaner is great on dull or sanded balls.

I currently use Lanemasters cleaner and it tends to put some shine back on it.

How do you apply it?

Other than Clean and Dull, it is THE only cleaner for me that removes oil lines that lead to an oil shine.

I'm about half way through my first bottle of Lanemasters cleaner and I've never experience any added shine, either by hand or by spinner.

My preferred cleaner is neo-tac hook it. To my eyes it's most effective cleaner I've used.

Energizer after ever set.
Clean & Dull every 2 weeks for deep cleaning.

I don't have a spinner so I spray it directly onto the ball immediately after a set.  The ball in question is the Fury Solid at 800 wet sand.  It just seems to add some shine back to it.

Extremely unusual reaction. Are you sure there isn't some shine/polish underneath the dirt/sanding? (I assume not. I'm just looking for some explanation: this strong alcohol putting a shine on any ball under any circumstances defies logic.)

I've noted in other posts that I found this cleaner to remove unknown dirt and marks that not even acetone will remove.

Yeah it wouldn't surprise me that it would remove just about anything.  Lanemasters is extremely potent stuff.
