Would a bowling ball get ruined if I kept a ball in the bucket soaking for a long amount of time? Let's say I filled it up dropped the ball in put the soap in and just let it sit.Would the oil go back into the ball? Would it oil stay on top of the water with the soap? Just curious, I want to give my bowling balls a HWB but, I don't feel like changing the water and babysitting it every 30 mins.Also, would the water fill the pores of the ball ruining it? Thanks!

1. Place the ball into a bucket and place it under your bath tub faucet.

2. Run your hot water until it turns cold at which time you take the ball out of the bucket, wipe it off and your done!

3.  This is the best hot water bath process to use.  This process keeps new hot water going into the bucket the entire time.  The oil will float to the top and out of the bucket into the drain.  This keeps the oil from being absorbed back into the balls cover.

4.  Placing a ball into a bucket of hot water and just letting it soak is not as good as what I described above.  The trick is to keep the water hot.  You can't keep the water hot just letting it sit in bucket.  

Hope this helps.

i wouldnt let it sit. i did that with my ball and the damn thing never hit the same since

I do. Just enough to stay hot, and overflow the floating oil from the surface. I also put on a rubber glove (can't take the heat),reach into the water, and rub the oil from the surface of the ball occasionally.

I prefer just water, no soap.
