I was wondering if  a person can sand there balls with out having to go to a pro shop and pay for it?  Or can you do it from home for yourself, and how to do it.

I do it by hand all the time.  just with a cup of water and a piece of sand paper.   Sanded my 900Global Sure Thing to 1000 grit and shot my second 300 right after.

Best thread title, ever.

 

Yes, you can refinish with either abralon or with wet-sanding strips (abralon is easier) by hand.

The trick is to keep track of the area of the ball (start over the logo, do that hemisphere, flip it over, etc. Work with a wet sanding media, light pressure, and use the same motion everywhere you sand for a consistent amount of time.

That will keep the sanding even and not get the ball out of round over time.

It's a lot of work, compared to a spinner, but nothing at all wrong with sanding yourself.

You can look up the grit steps on your ball, or modify to suit your tastes. In general, if you have a 2000 grit finish let's say, you'll want to do a 320 grit, then 1000, then 2000. Work in even steps up to your final finish.

There are exceptions to that, but it's a good practice on most finishes.

make sure both sides are the same surface grit

If you get a spinner, you have to sand more than just "top" and "bottom". 

You must do a minimum of 4 "sides" and some prefer to do 6 as donkee suggests.

Where do you guys but your abralon pads?

Ebay mostly
