Title: Hook Again and OptiSorb
Post by: Jimbo on October 22, 2003, 03:14:22 AM
I would like to hear from anyone about Hook Again. I read on the BallReview that there was another product called OptiSorb Premium it's a diatomaceous oil absorbent. I would like to know if it works and where can you buy this stuff

Never heard of this Optisorb Premium, but a quick web search revealed this webpage: Unbelievably cheap by Bowling products standards -

Has anyone yet checked out the MSDS for both products to see how similar they are?
My hubby has looked at the hook again compound,and thinks it's like the "oil absorbtion" stuff that is sometimes used in driveways and stuff.

Hook Again does not work on a icon 2... I found out the hard way.

So instead of buying the hook again compound, you could just buy that and save 15 bucks??

Umm yes, if you read the hook again compound bottle it says it also removes oil. Brunswick and Columbia say it has nothing to do with plastizcer(typo), even my pro shop guy said it was not even the real reason why it dies, and how muhc sense it dosnt make.
