To those that use Simple Green and alcohol, to you use half of each or do you put any water in it.

My point in my previous post was, basically who cares?? If you want to spend 3 times as much to clean your stuff than somebody who uses Simple Green, good for you! But just because you do, and somebody else doesnt, doesnt make your way the only way, sir.

Absolutley no where did I ever say, that my way was the only way.

You, sir, seem to have your own agenda, trying to insist that you're seeing words I did not write, nor even imply. You are what's wrong and what has become so VERY, VERY wrong with this website. Take your agenda elsewhere. I am sick of it.

Unbelievable. I don't know how you can say a Simple Green solution does not remove oil rings. Maybe you don't wipe your ball with a microfiber towel as part of your preshot routine. All I know is this, if there is ANYTHING on my bowling ball after a game, I spray my Simple Green/water/isopropyl mix on the ball, take my shoes off, then wipe ball down with a terry cloth. Guess what? No oil rings, no belt marks, just pristine ball surface. It really doesn't matter though, people will do what they want to do. I guess some people are smarter about it than others.

Unbelieveable?

No. I just did it today. I bowled 6 practice games on fresh oil. I mixed the concentrated SG with fresh 70% alcohol yesterday. I cleaned the balls after bowling today. I used a micro-fiber towel and poured the mixture on the towel and rubbed and rubbed and rubbed. The oil lines stayed there. end of story.

Seeing all the "testimony" in this thread about SG, I once again tried a 50/50 combo of concentrated SG and 70% isopropyl alcohol. It most defintiely does NOT remove oil lines, like the really good bowling-ball specific cleaners, like Clean and Dull and Lanemasters cleaner and Hook-It and Remedy.

when you average 180 and have experimented with that many cleaners, you should just murder yourself and be done with it

WELL EXCUSE ME FOR HAVEING A FUMBLE THUMB. I was useing my phone and the keys are a little close.

but it still stands since when is HOOK IT a f'ing cleaner.

Since like, always??

From the Neotac website:

"Removes oil, dirt and belt marks from particle and reactive bowling balls."

And it does a great job. It's the best spray cleaner I've used. The product runs circles around Simple Green.

Track is different then belt marks or grime. SG is a degreaser. It lets the ball retain its tackiness.

I never put words in your mouth, but here again when somebody disagrees with your opinion, you go on a rant chest bumping all your buddies that agree with you, Im SICK OF THAT!!! I dont have an agenda at all, just an opinion on things that i have just as much right to voice on here as you do, right or wrong...I never claimed that freaking Simple Green was the best, i simply stated what i have found, im so sorry my opinion didnt agree with yours.

And if you are so tired of this website and the people on it, why do you continue to come here every day?

Take my agenda elsewhere? Please tell me allmighty charlest what my agenda is???

Somehow this became political with that last post, hell lets make it about tree hugging! I use that new GREEN CLEANER (not simple green). It's very eco-friendly....and I can get a discount on my taxes for using it as well! Boy you guys that use the name brand cleaners are just missing out!!!

LMMFAO...SARC!

Now that it is approved for anytime use I might have to agree. It was not allowed for the longest time because the denaturing agents that are sometimes used are acetone, mek, and other solvents of sort. The USBC says they did testing with denatured ethyl alcohol and found that it did not soften , leave a residue or change the coverstock that is why they put it on the approved list. I'm not too sure about that though.
