I stick mine in the sink with hot water maybe every other month. I don’t bowl as much as others. 2 leagues a week plus maybe one tournament a month. Maybe 30-35 games a month.

What do you think about the Pyramid Phoenix personal ball reviver?

[@StephRenee812]

Missed the live. Dang it. Lol got my t-shirt thank you..

[@1985supramk2]

Do you remember the old neon green hex grips? I stored the ball in a cool dry place and the grips melted anyway 😂😂😂

I have to disagree a bit here. The OOTB surface is made to look good on display at the pro shop. It is not an edict from God Almighty. A person at home is not going to replicate an industrial process... and given the huge range of actual OOTB surfaces for the exact same ball I have seen from some companies, they can't either :) . But seriously, neither a player nor a PSO has the same equipment that a factory has. They can get close-ish and that is all. Much better to resurface a ball to something you and/or your pro shop operator can reliably repeat, before you throw it the first time. If you want 500-1000-4000 + polish then just do that and ignore whatever the listed surface is. If all you have is some TruCut pads and ball cleaner do that, or have the PSO do that.

How many times can I hit the Surface with by hand before I negatively affect the bowl. My PSO day three for times? Your thoughts guys?

[@Dukeofearl11]

As long as the ball doesn’t go undersize. Which it shouldn’t because for it to be undersize the logos will be completely gone. You can surface the ball.

This is exactly the video I needed at exactly when I needed it. Thanks for providing an expert opinion!

[@MarilynWhite-sc4zv]

Do bowling balls die after 200 games? I've heard to replace them. Resurfacing should only be done 3 times. Is that correct information?

[@nordattack]

After I get home from league I thoroughly clean my resin balls with 91% isopropyl. Since I have faithfully done this I have never had a single drop of oil come out of any of my balls in the deoiler.

[@BenStarven]

Can you put a bowling ball in the oven? If so how long and what temperature

[@earthwormjim7310]

I clean my equipment after every set and don’t need to extract oil. I run them on occasion and little to nothing comes out.

[@squidly2112]

Excellent content!! .. this is so important. Thanks guys!

[@Chris-xu6gi]

What about the nuball reviver?

[@drg19841]

I've personally had good luck with the dishwasher method. Now please note, no warranties, do at you own risk, ect. But if you do the eco wash and air dry, and know your water temp is under 130, it'll be fine. If your ball is absolutely saturated and your worried about oil residue in your dishwasher, set 1/2 cup of white vinegar in the top rack of the dishwasher. Not only will it break down the oil, it'll clean out deposits from your dishwasher. But no matter what, no high temp wash and air dry ONLY.
