Storm has recently changed their surfacing finish on certain pearl bowling balls. How is this new 4K Fast finish compared to the original 1500 Polish? Jungo is back, testing the RST X2 with both surfaces, with an extra 1500 finish for comparison!

COMMENT: What are your thoughts on the new 4K Fast Finish?
@joshg218
@joshg218 2 года назад
This wasnt 4K fast. You need to properly put the teeth under the 4K for it to have traction in the back of the lane. You turned it into a neutered 1500grit surface ball so it was too early but not smooth enough in the back end to get that quick traction.

I don't have a spinner; however, I took several pads from 360 to 4000 grit to my Hy-Road by hand and the last two were wet. Used the ball on my next outing for a few frames. Wasn't impressed. Took a 3000 grit pad to it and tried it out again. Whoa! Nice mid-lane reaction and finish. Lots more miss room. Liked it...

I don’t like that they went away with the polish. I don’t believe that has anything to do with them being too soft. I don’t think it’ll stop being from buying storm balls. People can try it at 4000 and if they don’t like it they can always take it to 1500 polished.

4k fast means that they go from 500 to 4k without skipping a pad, so 500-1000-2000-3000-4000. As for what i think about it, I haven't tried one with that specific surface. Generally I have always done my own polish job with Step Two so that I can reproduce it compared to what SPI used to put on the ball. That said, if it shuts USBC up, then I'm all for it.

Good day, It took me a moment to understand the process. It's a little confusing right. The process starts from using a 360-grit pad. There's no 3000-grit pad used as it is not used in their finishing process (according to their resurfacing guide from 2012 and before: www.stormbowling.com/downloads) except to finish the ball at 3000-grit. Here’s Storm’s video explaining 4K Fast: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Xy59kdaqZ7Y.html The finishing process is mentioned from minutes 1:18-1:25 and again from 7:00-7:18. When Alex says: "We're not skipping any grits in between... We're literally not going to skip any steps..," it's to be understood "contextually" not "literally." I hope this helps. Storm's 4000-grit finish goes from: 500-->2000-->4000 Storm’s 4K Fast goes from: 360-->500-->1000-->2000-->4000.. (again, no 3000).
@Dainslaif
@Dainslaif 2 года назад
Yeah, they call it "fast" because when it hits the dry, it changes direction "faster" than their normal 4000 ball finish (IE; more angular) due to being a bit more polished as a result of the full procession of grits.

I love the look of 1500 polish. So I will still sometimes ask my pro shop operator to polish my Zen, Phaze 4, and Hyped Pearl on the spinner! Looks clean and sharp coming out of the bag, and gives me confidence. Oh BTW, it's also nice to see bright lighting and close-ups on Jungo once again, like vids from a couple years ago. Lucky 9 looks great that way too. Cheerful looking!

I have the Alert which I liked and I had my shop do the Storm instructed full 4K fast 5 step process from 360 pad to 4000 and I like it even more. Its a subtle difference but makes the ball a tad smoother and almost makes the ball more versatile from the fresh to alil later in the blocks then the polish.

From what I can tell, 4K Fast essentially means 4K without skipping any grits on the way up. Seriously. That’s what Storm says. That’s how I’ve been sanding balls for 20 years and i always just called that 4000 grit. So I guess that means “regular” 4000 grit is actually “4K Lazy” 🤷‍♂️

After trying many different combinations, I find that 500, 1000 and power house polish is the best way to go for polish.

4K fast - 500, 1000, 2000, 3000, and 4000. The process is designed to have a similar RA value, as it gets the surface extremely smooth - under 5 RA while the 1500 polish has about a 3 RA value. 4k fast should be a little smoother, but less sensitive than 1500 polish finish.

There's no 3000-grit pad used as it is not used in their finishing process (according to their resurfacing guide from 2012 and before: www.stormbowling.com/downloads) except to finish the ball at 3000-grit. Here’s Storm’s video explaining 4K Fast: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Xy59kdaqZ7Y.html The finishing process is mentioned from minutes 1:18-1:25 and again from 7:00-7:18. When Alex says: "We're not skipping any grits in between... We're literally not going to skip any steps..," it's to be understood "contextually" not "literally." I hope this helps. Storm's 4000-grit finish goes from: 500-->2000-->4000 Storm's 4K Fast goes from: 360-->500-->1000-->2000-->4000.. (again, no 3000).

Good day, It took me a moment to understand the process. It's a little confusing right. The process starts at 360 grit. There's no 3000-grit pad used as it is not used in their finishing process (according to their resurfacing guide from 2012 and before: www.stormbowling.com/downloads) except to finish the ball at 3000-grit.

@@caribbeanobsidian9119 I have been resurfacing like this for a number of years, not knowing that was what I was doing...lol It wasn't until I heard of Skip sanding that I even attempted that. For the most part, I still resurface most of my stuff the Fast way I guess...lol

1500 polish all day. Storm better figure out how to get polish back on balls without the hardness issue. Every other manufacturer has polished balls.

Your 1500 grit no polish almost looked shinier than factory 4K Fast directly from Storm. If a ball comes out of the factory at 1500 grit, it will laser scan at 1500 grit. This is why I never use Abralon, because 1500 Abralon scans much higher than 1500.

The polish did not make the balls soft. The residue from the polish caused lower readings in subsequent tests. Watch the Storm video. They explain all of this. You did not adjust the surface of the X2 to 4k fast. All you did was 4000 after box polish. 4k fast is NOT a fast spin. 4k is a progression of abralon starting at a course pad, and progressing up to a 4k pad. This will create a different reaction with teeth underneath. Watch the Storm video on this too. They explain the process. I love your guys videos but if you would have watched the relevant videos Storm produced on these topics, you would have all the correct info about the use of polish and how it affects surface tests and what 4k Fast actually is.

these people need to start making solid colors, the tied dye stuff looks like what happens when kids mix different colors of playdough together hahhahahahahhaa. Ive been looking at old bowling balls on ebay, even if it makes me worse, I dont care. 200 plus for a ball, we should be able to pick better colors

The more seriously I took the sport, the less I even wanted polish on my balls anyway. If you need a cleaner reaction, why take a full-price or nearly full-price ball, then ruin its cover with polish? What's wrong with a cheaper ball that flares less? I know that's not what the manufacturers (and ignoramuses that think lower price = lower quality ball) want us to think, but it's how I personally see it.

All of this is way overthinking. All these different balls are just the manufacturers' way to sell WAY MORE balls with their marketing tactics and the bowlers just fall for it over and over again. Hilarious actually

"Harshly banned by USBC" seems an odd statement to make when a rule is in place and Storm did not adhere to it.
