i use ebonite energizer cleaner on all balls and it cleans all of them right up nicely. Plus it smells like an orange to boot!!!!

Brillo and lighter fluid.

When I want to clean mine (and I always do after every 6 games, or at least 2x eack week), I use 409 or Fantastic w/hot water.  If you clean each set or every other set, you will minimize the oil absorbtion, thus extend the life of your GN considerably.

Folks,

Once again, this ain't rocket science. Use the same thing you use on all other resin and particle bowling balls. KISS!

Brillo is not legal per ABC rule...lighter fluid is okay before and after competition, and not during.

Keep both away from your pants.  Especially simultaneously!

OK, then, maybe some SOS and isobutane.

What's next, you going to start writing reviews in the same manner?

Who the?  How the?  What the ?????


Reviews? Nope, not good enough to write a review.
