You say that you have a white dot, so you are familiar with the oil capabilities of a plastic ball, right? Not much polished and only a bit more dull.
Now, take that ball ( the plastic one ) and put a diamond weightblock in it and you have a high performance white dot.
Don't belittle what I say. I have both the white dot and the xxxl. The xxxl flares a bit, but ABSOLUTELY NEEDS THE DRY TO WORK! Handles a little more oil than a whitedot, but not much.
If your lanes aren't dry enough, or if they have some carrydown, the xxxl can fade at the pocket, so be sure and drill it pretty strong.
You can also adjust the coverstock to a duller finish if the factory finish is too shiny. It could help a bit.
