Title: Question about color on my Supernova XP
Post by: LaneHammer20 on January 16, 2008, 11:00:39 AM
I got this Supernova XP a couple weeks ago and I am just wondering if this solid color at the bottom [look in pics} is normal or if it is a color blem or second quality ball. I paid normal price for it so i would like to know. I also have a equation I have not drilled yet that has the same problem as you can see only worse, and is more in different places around the ball, the supernova has it just at the bottom. On one of the pics of the equation their is a picture of like air bubble looking things, don't know how well you can see it the picture came out somewhat blurry, wondring what these are as well if you can answer.

It seems a little weird, I would think it would be the same sparkly colors everywhere on the ball. The spot is dirctle on the bottom side of the pin, where the first part of the pour goes. If it is a color blem on the supernova, i am returning it because I didn't pay that kind of money for a second, the equation I don't care about because I bought it for $60. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks

not a blem, production models had more blueish white in them

and a color blem shouldnt scare anyone, on any ball, but this is def not a blem as we sold many with the same coloring

Ok good, I didn't think it was but wanted to make sure.

So anyways does anyone know what the bubble looking things in picture 3 is, i have seen that on other balls, a good amount of it on the equation, one little patch on the XP.

The lighter color blue on the bottom of pic 1 si called phasing. It happens differently n balls and won't appear in others. From the ones I've seen it in, the balls that have it seem to hook more. =:^D
