    Nope, I will just spend the money to get it professionally done. Easier in the long run.

    It really stinks when you get barbeque sauce on the ball. Once baked in, you never get it out and it totally destroys the hook.

    I guess I should only rotissie the spare ball.

    Actually, it doesn't stink, it smells pretty good. I wonder if Storm has plans for Barbaque scented balls in the future. It would certainly be a boon to the consessions at the local lanes. A real win/win.
    I live by three simples rules:

    1. Don't ever ask about my business
    2. Never discuss business at the table
    3. Don't ever side with anyone against the family

    Was the Barbeque stain in the shape of Joe Montana's face? From the commercial last night you can get big money for that!

    Being a builder for over 25 years, I am among those who like to bypass the manufacturer and make it myself. However, when it comes to something like cooking the oil out of an expensive bowling ball, I think I would just pay for the service.
    Best of luck to you.

    Be aware of any bowlers who have the Innovative Revivor oven, like myself. We charge allot less, at least I do, that proshops for oil extraction. In fact, I charge a full resurface & oil extraction, about the same price as what a proshop would charge for either resurface OR oil extraction.

    My proshop charged $15 and uses the Brunswick

    I didn't know they had their own oil extraction equipment.
