I used wet/dry 3m sandpaper in stages of grit: 220, 320, 400, 800, 1000. Each sanded by hand wet. I then dampened an Abralon 4000 grit pad and did a final resurfacing. I would have liked to use a 2000 and 3000 grit abralon, but I didn't have one. Finally, I used this ball cleaner and polish which added a nice shine to it. I am impressed with how well it came out and reacts on the lane. By hand, it took about 2 hours total.

I turned a 2500 grit/matte finish surface into a 4000 grit/polished surface.

I don't really know what the hell that machine does. It's not "polishing" the ball in the sense that we'd do it on a spinner with polishing compound (very fine abrasive/polish). This is stolen from something I wrote earlier today on a different post:

"Storm has a resurface guide here that says:

1500-grit Polished Factory Finish

  • 500-grit pad – Sand firmly for 30 seconds on all four sides.
  • 1000-grit pad – Sand lightly for 20 seconds on all four sides.
  • 2000-grit pad – Sand lightly for 20 seconds on all four sides.
  • 4000-grit pad – Sand lightly for 20 seconds on all four sides.
  • Storm® Step Two™ – Polish lightly for 15 seconds on each side.

    I only see the Step 2 sold by the quart, unfortunately, but that gives you an idea of what you're looking for. I got a small bottle of polish thrown in when I bought my ball spinner, and I don't currently throw any polished reactive gear, so I can't chime in. "

    As far as home use, you can also buy Reacta Shine which the reviews indicate you can use with a microfiber towel at home. If I didn't already have a spinner, I'd consider keeping a bottle around for 10-game touchups and having the PSO knock the surface down and repolish for me every once in a while.

    Also, keep in mind that you can't use either of those products during USBC competition (needs to be before your first ball or after your last) since they alter the surface of the ball.

    edit to add: it's bothering me that I can't figure out what that machine does. I'm going to make a thread.
