Title: Shined up the Black Widow with Beans Sauce...Pics inisde !
Post by: 302efi on July 21, 2007, 04:18:30 PM

I got my Beans Secret Sauce sample in the mail the other day and I finally got a chance to try out the polish.

I hit the ball on 4 sides with a 500 grit pad, then 4 sides with the polish on a damp rag...Heres the what it came out looking like:

Any results yet ?

If I remember correct, some guys already tested it with polish and the results were :  Never polish a Black widow ! If you want more length and backend go and buy the pearl version, which is a very good ball too.

I personally don`t believe that beans secret sauce makes an exception from the rule but who knows ?

Damn I forgot about this post ...Since I didn't get any replies when I posted it, I didn't think anyone was interested

When I did get to throw the ball a couple times in league since. Basic THS, little lighter since its summer. Bowler stats in my profile.

The polish did bring the ball to a nice shine and did increase length, but I didn't really see a huge increase in backend. Actually the backend was about the same as 4000 no polished. I tried a couple different lines on various nights and the polish had me moving farther right, which is something I cant ever do, lol.

To sum it, the ball didn't help me score better or raise my scores anymore. The ball did have more length, but not the backend increase expected.

Also the ball seemed to leave more 10's and a few more nine then before. So bad that I put it away last Monday night after the start of the second game.

I also put some on my Epic Odyessy, but anit got a chance to toss it yet...

So this is not a bash to Beans, just my little exp with the sauce.

One other thing,
