Bucket o' water
Spray bottle o'water
Small towels for applying/buffing polishes
Bigger towel for wiping down ball between sanding steps
220 grit sandpaper
Maroon, green, gray scotchbrite
500,1000,2000,4000 grit abralon (hooray Supergrit!)
Track (Now Powerhouse) Clean n Dull
Track (Now Powerhouse) Clean n Sheen
Track (Now Powerhouse) Magic Shine
Brunswick Factory finish polish
Brunswick Rough Buff
Legends Polish
I've had mixed results using the gritted polishes (Clean n Sheen, Rough Buff) so I tend to stick to using the Magic Shine or Brunswick polish with varying surface grit.

What I have next to my spinner:
Squeaky Clean's polishes: 1000 grit, 2000 grit, 3000 grit (these are OLD.)
Char, They are oldies, but they were goodies in their day.
I am surprised that you did not have any old Ebonite polish left.
600, 900, 1500. 2000, 3000, 5000. Or did I miss seeing it.
Those were the days.
Nice post Char.
