I think it would depend on how low you went with the grit and the drilling on said ball. I've taken a few balls like the black ice (lower end reactives) down to 4000 or 2000 grit to even them out some, but never lower to handle more oil. I suppose it would work, but you are still going to be limited by the core / cover.
