Sorry about that.  We made a run of 400 balls for a customer overseas.  They preferred the reaction shiny out of the box.  It appears some of those have trickled into our regular stock.  Simply take it to your local pro shop and have them take it from 500 to 1000 to 2000 Abralon.

Thanks,

Cleaned the ball (5x3) brought it to a frsh box 2000 finish then polished it.

It worked great on a condition where I usually use an Illusion.

 My teammate had me take his to 4000 and polish it.  He shot 290 out of the box last wednesday night.

Well a update, I bought the shiny one last night and a regular one and took both to league which is a heavier THS.

Tried to OOB 200 grit one and seemed to roll decent, but seemed to burn up if I hit any of the dry, switched to the one that came polished from the factory and stood in the same spot.  Ball hit dry and didn't jump just made a nice arc to pocket which gave me a great look all night.  Shot 694, but missed 4 ten pins for some reason, so should have been around 740 or so.
