Cheap oil extraction?
« on: May 26, 2010, 02:15:53 AM »
Finally got above 80 yesterday, had balls in car, meeting wife to bowl after work.Noticed that her raw hammer burn had oil oozing, sweating, out of ball wiped it off and wrapped it in a towel hoping to absorb some of the oil. Is this a poor mans rejuvinator oven or am I killing our equiptment?

The problem with the hot water bucket method is that the water gets cool too quickly and there is not a constant amount of heat being used on the ball. You have to replenish the hot water a few times to keep the temperature hot enough to extract oil.


That''s the beauty of the dishwasher method.  None of those drawbacks.  Gotta have a dishwasher though.  Wireman, if you have dishwash, try it.  Won''t hurt your bowling ball at all.  It''s a mass of chemicals that was formed under much greater heat and with the use of a chemical catalyst.  You can''t hurt it with 120 degrees Farenheit.  Turn off heated dry.  It flat out works!

Dishwasher (no heat dry) works great... until the wife finds out...
