What Cleaner do I need for a Tsunami?
« on: January 08, 2006, 09:03:55 AM »
Can someone please let me know what cleaner I should use for my Tsunami?  Lane#1 recently replied and said that they do not recommend cleaning the ball.  Man, I just can't believe that.  Someone else said Simple Green is good.  I'm not looking for a polish or a trick solution, just a cleaner.  Please, each of you give me your 5 word response.

ebonite orange ball cleaner 6.95 and works wonders on a spinner or 50/50 simple green and water is ok. Also i have used 409 orange clean with 50/50 mix and it worked as well as simple green and costs 2.99.

mike, I have been using orange cleaner/degreaser on all of my equipment for quite some time. I use the spray bottle & a soft rag. The stubborn belt marks & grease takes a little rubbing, but it works good. After that I wipe it down with windex to remove any soap residue that may be on the ball. I don't even use my ball spinner for that. I do that after every use & have never had a ball die on me!

So, does it mean the ball was useless after some games (let said 50 games) and would be consider to throw into the rubbish bin?

No.  I don't think that Lane#1 thinks the ball is rubbish after a period of time.  I think that for a company representative to say that the ball does not need cleaning, means that the person isn't a bowler.  Certainly, after just three games there are enough belt marks on a glossy ball to warrant some cleaning.  So, I think that the wrong person at Lane#1 answered my question.  Maybe they don't want to be held liable, since they don't produce a cleaner from themselves.  None-the-less, I appreciate everyone's input. Thanks
