Yeah they can be resurfaced, it'll just be all white then that's all.

I never have done it, but seen one a friend did, as stated, all white ! cool looking ball, but not what he was looking for, but still a cool ball.

PS: Hard a &%#) to keep it white...

You can lightly (I do mean LIGHTLY) resurface the newer ones with 800 grit paper to remove light scratches.  Once repolished they look much like new.

I think the older ones don't have a thin clear coat on them and take a lot less work to turn white.

the best thing you can do to a viz-a-ball is introduce it to a lustrekleen machine every month.
