Does Storm ball have good life span with maintenance like cleaning with cleaner after each bowling session ?

My storms have lasted forever. They are great. All they need is normal cleaning and a bath once in awhile

Reactor and Accutread are generally considered to have pretty respectable lifespans.  They may not be PK18 or Soaker, but better than most.

If you're consistent with maintenance and the occasional hot water bath, Storms will last forever.  I didn't do either of them and my old El-Nino Gold lasted years.  Now I do both, and my Passion still looks/acts/carries like new.

I clean mine after every set.  After a season of bowling 4-5 times a week, I have seen zero loss in ball reaction.
