Hi All! I was wondering what is better to clean
a reactive ball surface before polishing. I've
been using Denature alcohol but I've been hearing
some people using 409 orange degreaser also. So,
what are you guys opinion on this? Thanks.

I much prefer a bowling ball cleaner for obvious reasons.

Some people find a combination of Simple Green and either water or 91% isopropyl alcohol (available at most drug stores and supermarkets) a good combination to save money. I found Simple Green and water did work well.

I personally tried an Orange based degreaser without good results; others have liked it.

For great, deep cleaning, just short of an oil extraction, try Track's Clean and Dull. It is excellent. It does not "dull" polished or pearl balls; so, don't worry.

I use the ebonite energizer cleaner on everything. I definitely would use it before polish.
