I kind of new to surface changes, is there a way of getting out the sanding lines out a ball, I use a lot of water and not a lot of pressure but lines are still there, it is a pearl coverstock, and I am using a ball spinner, any help is appreciated, I do realize that the lines don't really affect the ball I don't think.
If your trying to make the ball look like it did new without the sanding "lines" pattern forget it.
Basically the factory sanding process produces a surface pattern which is more like what a random orbital sander does.
You can't reproduce that by hand on a spinner.
Stepping through all the grits like your doing (800,1000,2000,4000 tried compound ending with vise polish) produce a smooth surface.
If your only doing 4 sides of the ball each step, you could increase to 6 sides on the 4000 step.
Your wanting to make sure the lines from the previous grit are gone.
or sometimes I use "Soft Scrub" which acts as a fine abrasive after the final step but before the polish. Which gives it a little finer surface.
Unless it something like a plastic ball, you don't really need a glass like surface on a ball.
