Uranium Pearl - Anyone alter the surface?
« on: November 29, 2005, 02:46:12 AM »


   Anyone taken to alter the surface of their Uranium Pearl
by sanding/scuffing it up? If so, what grit did you use and why?

I see that your waiting for the Solid Uranium I would not dull the surface of the Pearl as you will get a similiar reaction as the dull by doing so.

since Lane#1 uses Brunswick coverstocks they tend to take very well to surface alteration, unlike storm and ebonite coverstocks that i have come across.

you could try 1000 grit then buff to a sheen....a dull pearl usually will not work well and tend to roll out and die at the pins....
