Now that I have a ball spinner, I would like to buy some polish that way I can polish my balls. I don't want to buy a polish that has a grit in it to where it finishes the ball to a certain grit (ex. 1500 grit polished) I want it to be a polish to where I can sand the ball to 1000, 2000, or 4000 and then apply the polish, and then I will I can have a 2000 or 4000 grit polished ball. I guess it would be nice to be able to put some on my plastic ball also. It has gotten pretty dull. So what do you think is the best polish to buy? Doesn't matter who makes it. Thanks

SNAKE OIL is my favorite for a few reasons.
1- No abrasives in it.
2- The ball actually picks up the lane a little earlier than most polishes, yet still finishes strong. Sometimes polishes make the ball reaction too over/under. This one is a keeper for me.

Another "real" polish is Lanemasters' stuff. No abrasives contained, and you definitievly need a spinner to apply it correctly.

I have heard a lot of people reccomend the snake oil. I was going to order pads and some more ball cleaner when ever I ordered the polish that way I won't have to pay as much shipping. But, I can't find the snake oil on any other website besides valentinos.
So, are the valentino sanding discs the same thing as the abralon pads, and do they last as long?

Right now, it's only available through the company.

They are not the same. Valentino's "seem" to be longer lasting. I have no proof. It just seems that way from my use of them.
