Ball cleaner
Any great diy ball cleaners out there? I tried the simple green & 91% alcohol 50/50 mix. Seems to work pretty well.
As far as DIY'ers the SG/Alco mix is the most popular and widely used one and there's a a couple variations of the mix.Originally Posted by santos314
People have tried other mixes, but nothing ever real jumped ahead of it. If your going the DIY route there's nothing any better.

Oh, and LEFTY!!!
I use 60% Fabuloso and 40% alcohol (91% isopropyl). Seems to work pretty well. Smells & looks just like That Purple Stuff.

I would exercise a little care in using too high of a concentration of Simple Green. If you use too much, Simple Green will leave behind a residue on the surface of your ball. In my opinion, a 50/50 mix is way too high. I started off trying that and over the course of time I found my ball getting longer and longer. I presently use about 10% Simple Green, 50% of 91% Iso Alcohol and the rest plain water. Remember that Simple Green is a highly concentrated degreaser.

I've tried many homemade solutions, but none of them stack up to Storm's Reacta Foam. That stuff does wonders and 1 bottle between 5-6 balls lasts all season
