Vote for your favorite cleaners/polishes...
« on: April 03, 2007, 12:19:15 AM »
Hey guys,

I want to gather some data to help present to Ebonite before I make my trip there.  Please choose any or all cleaners/polishes that you would like to see kept for our use, thanks for your help.

1) Clean and Tacky/Dull (deep clean and helps remove oil)
2) Clean and Sheen (has grit and brings the surface back to 1000 grit)
3) Clean and Smooth (has grit and brings the ball back to 1500 grit)
4) Magic Shine (helps create length and more backend)
5) Delayed Reaction (helps reduce backend for more control)
6) Power Wash (spray cleaner which can remove white gutter marks by hand)

Clean n Dull best deep cleaner on the market IMHO.

Clean n Sheen this is my general use polish/compound, I find that you can get a much higher grit than advertised though.

Clean n Smooth works better for getting that factory smooth finish than any other abrasive. It is my default surface for partical balls because it won't break down the particals in the cover.

Magic Shine due to this being a non abrasive polish so I use it when I want to keep the base surface intact whether it be 600 or 4000. I find that it is has more affect on angularity than length which makes it very useful.

Delayed Reaction this is my only defense against short patterns, fried lanes, and over reacting backends due to my slow ball speed with medium revs.

Power Wash is my general cleaner that I keep in the bag. I give my micro fiber towel a few of squirt ever 1/2 game to keep it moist for wiping the ball between shots. This along with a good cleaning of each ball after use does cause me to go through quite a bit of it.

I think it is important for Ebonite to continue Delayed Reaction because there is nothing else like it on the market today, that I am aware of.

It reduces the backend dramatically and adds shine and length.  The reduction of backend on dry lanes is very important when you don't have a pearl urethane of a real dry lane resin ball or enough ball speed.
