asked a friend who operates a pro shop here in central il for a better way to clean my mission, he gave me this advise and it worked great, empty spray bottle, 8oz of simple green, 8 oz of rubbing achol, fill rest of way with water shake it up use a gray schotch brite. you can take ball back to your desired surface after ie 1000 or 2000 aberlon. by the way gray scotch brite is very close to 1000 aberlon, i tried this with my mission after about 50 games, and it worked perfectly for me.
