Activator is not particle.

On edit:  I don't know the difference between the two.

Bartender, Is there somewhere to find info on the pk 18 formula if it does vary? I was not aware that there were differences.
Activator is just a newer technology & is quite strong. It is a resin cover & some of the balls with that material had particles added. Activator + is more aggressive yet from my understanding.

The difference between them is the chemical composition.  As for a comparison, Activator seems to be cleaner through the heads.  It also needs a low RG core.  Well doesn't need, but it's more popular (Blazing, Raging and Intense were higher RG cores that didn't fare to well with the types of Activator).

perhaps brunsrich will chime in here but brunswicks activator reactive coverstock is completely different from powrkoil 18----completely different from the ground up. they( bayer )came up with a new urethane mixture(?).
