Since it was released after Brunswick went to their current standard finishes instead of the Trizact finishes, I'd guess 400-grit and High Gloss.

Get 35 Micron Tritact (it's still out there), and the ball will be brought back to NIB finish. I believe Lane#1 recommends Finesse IT II if you want to polish it.

Anyone willing to help me find some 35 micron trizact
pads? It's impossible to find them here locally.
I have a Super Carbide Bomb and two original
Super Carbides (diamond core) that needs to use trizact
pads in order to get them back to OOB finish.
Any help is highly appreciated.

Check out Jayhawkbowling:

http://www.jayhawkbowling.com/Products/taxi.html

This is where I bought my last set of Trizact from. I use the taxi system, but give them a call and they might be able to set you up with regular paper/pads. They're nice people to deal with.

I am from overseas (Malaysia). Do they accept
international orders? Sorry for not stating
that I am from overseas. Looks like I'll have
to try the site you recommended, Steven.
If they don't accept international orders,
is there any other way I can purchase those
trizact pads?

They have an international phone number listed on their site, so that's encouraging. Regardless, let us know what you end up finding.

Here's a wood worker's web site where I bought my last batch.

If you have a CAB, you need to cut them into the flower shape. But if you don't have a Trizact specific CAB, just back them with a damp sponge or the reverse side of an Abralon pad.

Have sent emails to both web-sites recommended to me.
No response from jayhawk and wwhardware said they will
not ship overseas. Just wondering if anyone can help
me to order it. Payment can be sent via paypal.

Mine's at 500 abralon. It's plenty strong at that surface for me.
