Title: Big B Polish
Post by: im4x4nut on November 29, 2005, 03:45:22 AM
Where can I get my hands on Big B polish products at a reasonable price? Web sites, online stores, etc.  Any help would be appreciated.

As with all things, this is my opinion. And we all know, opinions are like butt-holes, we all have one.

i have the 32 ounce bottle from buddiesproshop.com

shipping wasnt much because i ordered it with a bunch of other stuff.

i would recommend getting the big bottle if you have multiple balls that need polishing.

i'd say about a tablespoon worth of polish is about right for each ball.

i use it without a ball spinner.
i just apply to each half of the ball, starting from the top in small circles and work to the midline, pushing decently hard, flip the ball and repeat.

let it cake up and buff A LOT with a dry towel, works great, hand hurts a little after application, but thats the price i pay for not having a ball spinner.

What is an equivalent to the High Gloss Polish 1500 grit possibly?
--------------------
Like a dog that returns to its vomit the fool repeats his folly.


Sand the ball to 1500 grit; then apply Brunswick's High Gloss polish.
Remember, that it has no grit in it to change the underlying base to which it is applied. iven that most Brunswick pearls, these days are sanded to 400 grit, then have the polish applied, a 1500 grit sanding will make the ball go a lot further and hook less on the backend. Basically, make it more appropriate to be used in lighter oil. Of course, there are a few potential intermediate steps, like 600, 800, 1000 or 1200 grit.
