1. Whose Factory Finish Polish are you talking about? Almost eveyr manufacturer has one.

2. Results with using anyone's factory finish polish on their products, using their method of finishing the ball will be good, IF you want to replicate their factory finish on their balls. How it applies to another brand of balls is debatable.

3. Most factory finish polishes are available from several internet sellers. None are technically "cheap" since you always have to pay shipping. Unless you order several items to reduce the overall shipping per item or have several friends order items from that one seller, ordering one polish will be expensive.

Big trouble occurs when you try to duplicate a factory finish at home on teh spinner - in many cases, it will not be the same, even if you use the recommended basic grit and polish/rubbing compound.

Dizzy,

I think Storm is the only one a lot of people have had trouble with. Even then Storm has given several alternative ways to do it.
