Title: Need a good cleaner to remove scratches from surface adjustment
Post by: dark_rising76 on March 05, 2010, 11:54:52 PM
What would be a good cleaner to use to remove small scratches when using either a scotchbrite or abralon pad for surface changes? I think the last one I used was the Clean n Sheen from Track but that was like 3 years ago. Would like to find something that's currently out that's good.

Most times you would use a finer grit abralon pad to remove the scratches. If you want a sheen surface and are set on using a liquid, I would suggest Brunswick Rough Buff or 3M Super Duty Rubbing Compound.

Cleaners will never removes sanding lines.

You remove sanding lines and you remove the roughness needed to "grab" the lane.

You want "pretty", take up knitting. You want bowling, live with the sanding lines. (No smiley face. This is not a joke.)

I read a lot of comments and I find it some times funny .. there are people like this poster trying to remove SANDING lines and then there are others who say it's OK to SCRIBE lines on a ball that are impossible to remove .. we are a MIXED UP group!

I wonder what happens after the ball catches the first scratches after use... immediate resurfacing?

hmmm... maybe I should have posted this alittle better. But thank you Buggs, Cobalt and gso_bejar for responding back with the suggestions. Will likely buy a bottle of Clean n Smooth since they're still available on bowlingball.com at a good price.
