    Default Bowler's Grit Comparison Chart Updated to Ver. 2

    Okay, I've finally updated the Bowler's Grit Comparison Chart to Ver. 2

    Here's the direct link to the Updated Version:
    No file link at the moment

    There's Seven pages

    1- The Grit Comparison Chart
    2- Grit lists for different products
    3- Storms Old and New resurfacing steps, Motiv Factory Finishes
    4- Radicals ball surface chart, Mo Pinels Skip a Grit and Some Useful Grit Combos.
    5- The Bowling Ball Surface Adjustment Table by jbungard
    6- And even though it's OUTDATED there's the Ball Surface Friction Calculator (Outdated)
    7- The Six sides of a bowling ball chart.

    I'll add more and make any corrections when I can.

    It's a helpful resource if you do your own ball resurfacing.
