    I just resurfaced my meanstreak to 4000. Wow does resurfacing leave a mess, when I was on the lowest grit cover stock dust was just being shot everywhere. After I was done it was like I took handfuls of chalk and threw it all over. I may have sanded it more than I had to because the manual to the ball spinner said I had to use a single grit for all 6 sides before moving up, and that's what I did.

    You should be running water over the ball as you sand it! either from a faucet or use a spray bottle or you can dip the paper in a bucket of water has you sand.

    This will keep the dust down and also help reduce the build up in your paper.

    Are these the 6 quadrants? I bet there is an order you have to sand the ball for the resurfacing, maybe you could tell me the order from my picture?


    If your ball looks like your picture... I don't think it's round anymore...

    Ha. I would take a picture of my ball after it took a spin. I swear it looks better than when I first bought it. So shiny!
