haus diamond pads???
« on: February 22, 2007, 06:14:17 AM »
according to Legends/LM site, to resurface a ball, you should be using the HAUS DIAMOND PADS.  my questions are....

1.  what grit should be used?
2.  where can i find them?

thanks in advance for you help...

They go the Haus resurfacing machine. The machine costs $3150. Just go to your pro shop and ask him if he uses one. If he uses a different brand like Ebonite or the Cook Sphere machine go to another pro shop that has the Haus. It's the bast machine on the market and basically the only one that will resurface your Legends stuff correctly.

Here is a photo of one, there was an older model that looked a little bit different so dont just go by looks. https://www.shop.innovativebowling.com/displayProductDocument.hg?productId=358&categoryId=59

well I know for a fact that I wouldn't be able to find one of those within a 100 mile radius from me, so I guess i am going to just have to tough it out with my Vortex spinner

Trizact pads seem to work well on Legends DIamond particles.

Hi Ferdie,

If you get some of these diamond pads, would you post your opinion of them here after you've had a chance to test them?

Curious minds want to know...

Thanks

yes the cleanewr is the best all purpose cleaner you can get, only being beat by Tracks clean and dull, but that is a deep cleaner.

I'd do a bit more research before you order those pads..from the looks of them they are flat sanding "blocks" and most likely will not be good for use on your ball.  They do not appear to be flexible enough to contour the balls surface which will create  uneven sanding pattern and a potential flat spot on the ball.

to me it seems like that the pads are separated from the sanding blocks.  if you look at the set of 8 pads for S75.   there are no big gaps in between.  to find out for sure, i'll contact the company and ask before they ship my order.
