xxx factor.
« on: January 18, 2004, 09:40:55 PM »
Hi,
 
With this release you will have a reaction similar to the Reloaded but a bit stronger.  The XXX has the same monsoon coverstock as the Fear Factor but its pearlized.
 
Have a great day!

the core and the cover will make up for it.if you put the cover to 800 like the ff is would be alot stronger.

I was looking to get a xxx as a replacement for the x because I cant get the x but it sound like it might be too strong

you can play with the cover and get it where you want it.

Sorry to keep on , but do you get much more shiny than 1500 grit and will that make that much deference

Well I have an X right now that I took to a light sand...basically a heavy white scotchbrite.  So what tweak would you suggest on the XXX to be close to this??

I just wanted to get he polish off of the ball to make it less sensative to the wet / dry transition that I have in my leagues.  The Deuce also wasn't out back when I drilled it either.  

I love the look I get with the ball and fear that I won't get close enough with the XXX.  I guess that I will wait and see what it gives me...but I may have to order another X to stash away for later.

so what would a 2500 grit XXX do compared to a normal X with box condition?

it would be about the same that way.the backend is so much stronger with the 1500.the only way to get it close to the x factor is around 2500.it would be a waste to do that but thats just me.if the fear factor is to strong for you the xxx is just what you need.if you can use the FF for the first game or two the xxx will fall in right after it.it goes longer than the FF but has more snap to it.its a smooth FF with a bigger bite on the backend.if you like the FF you will like this also.
