I'd have to try them against each other, but I'd say this stuff is more hassle free. It's something you could easily pull out and use in the middle of the league, it's not abrasive on your hands at all, it's just like any regular ball cleaner except one makes the ball tacky and one makes it less tacky. As far as performance goes, again, I'd have to test them out against each other, but for as easy as it is to use and as well as it works, that combination would be hard to beat.
