Anyone ever use clean and sheen?
« on: April 13, 2006, 11:59:49 AM »
I have seen the description on tracks website that says its a cleaner/restorer on 320-1000 grit balls. Lets just say you have a ball at 600 grit, will it just clean the ball and leave the finish prep where it was or, will it alter the surface of the ball?

Also, it dosent say that its OK to use on particle equipment. Would it not be wise to use it on particle???

Here is the link to it,

Slopsurprise, Clean and Sheen will put a light coat of polish on the ball! How high the gloss is depends on how much pressure and the length of time on the spinner.Clean and Sheen may be used on particle balls. It is the spec'd polish for the GP 2. Hope this helps!

Clean n sheen is great at getting the compound finish back to anyball track makes that had a compound finish. It is what was used for the animal, gp2 and others.

If you want to leave the ball at 600 grit, then just use Clean N Dull(now Clean N Tacky)to clean the ball. It will not alter the cover. I have clean n smooth, clean n sheen and clean n dull. Clean n Sheen I beleive finishes close to 1200 grit with a sheen gloss. Clean n Smooth finishes closer to 1500 grit with less gloss. Both are good, but really get to close to the same finish.

Hey Slop,

Clean and Sheen is our compound finish but as stated, if you lean on it on a spinner, it can shine a ball.  You don't want to apply too much pressure if you want it to have that matte or sheen look to it.  It brings a surface closer to about 1000 and our Clean and Smooth does finish to 1500 as Legend has stated.
