email them..... lane1@lane1bowling.com

i asked about what the surface of my old origional purple buzzsaw was and they responded back that day.

OT:response about the purple buzzsaw was :
The coverstock on the Purple Buzzsaw is the Rhino Pro coverstock. The box finish is a light buff. Take the ball down when resurfacing then bring it back up to 600 grit. Then lightly polish it with standard 3-M rubbing compound

I was told that it was 600 git and then take it back to a shine using 3m rubbing compound, but I haven't had to do it yet, so I don't know how accurate the info is. Hope this helps

Thanks everyone for all your replies. I followed "thfonz98" suggestion on emailing Lane 1 about it & here's their response for anyone who wants to know.

"Brunswick doesn't use a grit system when they polish balls. They take them off the lathe and either single or double buff them on a buffing wheel, using a Lustre Kleen type compound that's not a wax. I would suggest wetsanding the ball down to 400 grit, and again up to 600 grit. Then, polish the ball using standard 3-M rubbing compound. This will be as close as possible".
