Doc's Elixir .... can you still get it?
« on: March 31, 2011, 04:03:25 AM »
Is this stuff still around? Is there another product like it that does the same thing?

His web site, http://home.comcast.net/~docsmagic/, is still in effect.
I'd use the contact info there to get in touch with him. I bought some from him about a year and a half ago, I think.

So...this is like a Rain-X for bowling balls? It doesn't affect how the work surface bites into the oil?

It has some effect on how the surface bites the oil. Without adjusting the cover a bit, your ball will have some added length and a bit less move when it does make it's move on the back end. Doc (the person that used to make it) used to recommend sanding the ball to the next lower grit than the ball came with when NIB.
