Bowling Ball Maintenance -  

Do you remember the old neon green hex grips? I stored the ball in a cool dry place and the grips melted anyway 😂😂😂

This is exactly the video I needed at exactly when I needed it. Thanks for providing an expert opinion!

I stick mine in the sink with hot water maybe every other month. I don’t bowl as much as others. 2 leagues a week plus maybe one tournament a month. Maybe 30-35 games a month.

I clean my equipment after every set and don’t need to extract oil. I run them on occasion and little to nothing comes out.

What do you think about the Pyramid Phoenix personal ball reviver?

After I get home from league I thoroughly clean my resin balls with 91% isopropyl. Since I have faithfully done this I have never had a single drop of oil come out of any of my balls in the deoiler.

How many times can I hit the Surface with by hand before I negatively affect the bowl. My PSO day three for times? Your thoughts guys?

I've personally had good luck with the dishwasher method. Now please note, no warranties, do at you own risk, ect. But if you do the eco wash and air dry, and know your water temp is under 130, it'll be fine. If your ball is absolutely saturated and your worried about oil residue in your dishwasher, set 1/2 cup of white vinegar in the top rack of the dishwasher. Not only will it break down the oil, it'll clean out deposits from your dishwasher. But no matter what, no high temp wash and air dry ONLY.

I have to disagree a bit here. The OOTB surface is made to look good on display at the pro shop. It is not an edict from God Almighty. A person at home is not going to replicate an industrial process... and given the huge range of actual OOTB surfaces for the exact same ball I have seen from some companies, they can't either :) . But seriously, neither a player nor a PSO has the same equipment that a factory has. They can get close-ish and that is all. Much better to resurface a ball to something you and/or your pro shop operator can reliably repeat, before you throw it the first time. If you want 500-1000-4000 + polish then just do that and ignore whatever the listed surface is. If all you have is some TruCut pads and ball cleaner do that, or have the PSO do that.
