Ball cleaner
What's the best value cleaner available and where do you buy yours? Conventional products or home brew secrets welcomed.
This is for a pearl ball by the way, not that that should make a huge difference.

Neo-Tac Hook-it is one of the most powerful spray cleaners.
Powerhouse Clean'N Dull is about the best penetrating cleaner.
Alcohol has been used for years and will clean the surface off okay.
The Simple Green/Alcohol mix (a 50/50 mix) is a very popular home brew mix and has been used for years also.
(Some use a equal mix of SG&Alco&/water)

What concentration? I know I've got a bottle around already so I'd definitely try it.
Do any cleaners get some oil out of the coverstock? I know no surface cleaner will remove all oil, but some is better than none.
Clean'N Dull and Hook-it both will remove some of the oil from the pores.
Here's a comparison of a ball with half cleaned with Clean'N Dull and the other half with Energizer Cleaner.

Thank you for the awesome comparison. Where would you get either of those from? Pro shop? Online somewhere?
I used to use straight simple green and lately have been using monster tac. It came free with a ball purchase, I think. I swear it smells and looks like windex but does seem to clean up surface oil and wheel marks from the ball returns.
Thanks for posting the reviews, I think both are available at Bowlingball.com.
Your Pro-shop or you can get online (Bowlingball.com, Buddies etc.)

100%. Just put some on a towel and wipe off your ball: easy and inexpensive.
