@louisdiaz316 Dude...what surface depends on how your ball reacts to the oil conditions you are bowling on...what ball are you throwing...what is the oob..what is it doing...what you want it to do. If you want more hook go down on grit #...want it to slide more before grabbing put on some polish.
Just use the grit # you want to Adjust a surface. Start low and go up to RE-surface. Most balls come with Out Of Box grit instructions. Adjust from there to get what you want it to do.

@SlatebowlAllStars alright thanks. so if i have a reactive resin ball and use more speed thank hook, what finish would you reccomend and would i have to use all of the lower numbered abralon pads than the one i would finish with?
-
@louisdiaz316 That depends on your Pro shop. Some may be better than others. But for $200 you can buy your own ball spinner and resurface your balls instead of always buying new. You can then adjust the surface the way YOU want it. I Love mine.

can somebody please tell me if pro shops do a good job at this? and how much it costs?

@TheBowlingboy300 Did you wash the oil out before you resurfaced? Try washing the oil and the polish out then resurface.

im trying to resurface my world beater and ive put polish on it before but i cant get it dull looking again i go 360 500 1000 2000 but it looks shiny
-
@TheBowlingboy300 after the 1000 grit you use the 1500 grit and then use polish on the ball. That way it resists early roll, but has traction underneath the polish for a nice snap at the backend.

If you're going to resurface a bowling ball, use a lot of water. Factories use water to get their finishes, why wouldn't we? Also, learn that there are 6 sides of the ball you need to sand on to get an even finish based on uneven hand pressure. You put more pressure on the top of the ball than on the side, otherwise you'd push the ball off the spinner or rotate the ball in the cup, giving an uneven finish. 6 sides to sand: finger side, thumb side, right side, thumb side, top, and bottom.

WOAH! MADE IN U.S.A.! I know most bowling balls are made in USA but you just don't see that much.
