I have a innovative spinner, and use it a lot to clean balls after bowling and resurfacing.
Question,,, after using my starting grit of 500, doing the 4 side technique, with the spinner,,, is it BETTER to do the remaining steps by hand?
When you use a spinner it limits the direction of sanding while spinning to one direction.
I got to thinking that maybe doing the finishing steps by hand in small circular motions with light pressure might actually give a better finish?
I would still use my spinner, but only as a GUIDE as to do the circular motions to all four sides more evenly.
Do many of you take pads with you on league night to make adjustments while warming up for league?
Using a sanding pad on polished balls, during a warm up, doesn't it remove the polish?
I would think on solid balls league adjustments, ( with sanding pads) might be one thing, but doing that on a pearl polished ball might another.
