Title: What are the grit of the balls?
Post by: Berreez on November 27, 2003, 06:56:46 PM
On the Lane#1 sight under surface it only says, polished, highly polished, etc. What are the sandpaper grits? I'm looking at the XXl, SCB, BCB, and the pearl BC.

My wrist brace is just like my RADAR detector, I really don't need it but it sure makes me feel better when I have it on.

Here are my guess's:

BCB: 1000
BC Pearl: 1500
SCB: 800
XXL: 1000
XL: 1500


Does this sound about right?

Bereez,

I called the Brunswick rep, and he said thatv they rarely make a coverstock that is finer than 1000; most are 800 or less, and some polished.  What is done after that he could not say.  I guess if Lane 1 thought that grit was important they would list it.  Maybe you should e-mail them and ask that questions from Chuck or Richie.

Hey,

Now that I think about it, grits are those little rice-like things that people eat with butter and salt/pepper.  If they are sandy grits, it's only because you are eating them on the beach!  Just thought I would make a feeble attempt at humor.

I just touched my Pearl Carbide Bomb up
with orange trizact. I will post the difference
when I get hom from league tomorrow night.

I would recommend using trizact for
all proactive lane #1 balls.
I used the 5 micron on my PCB and got
the reaction back after scuffing with a
green scotchbrite pad and trying to get an earlier
start out of it. now if I can just find my
last piece of 10 micron I will be set to go.
