Just picked up a deuce and am going to need to resurface it, and am wondering what surfaces you guys have had success with (so I can start with it at a favorable surface). I think it is drilled pin over and between the fingers with the CG swung out a hare.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks

I know there are people out here that love and hate their deuce at certain surfaces, am just wondering what they are

I don't have a Duece, but I've several of them thrown. I'd think 600 dull for oil or 800-1000 grit with a very light coat of polish for heavier medium conditions should be good. Depends on how you throw it and how much oil you see regularly.

I liked mine at the factory finish of 1000 grit for medium-heavy. Most people I see using one have it polished to some degree, though, on the same medium-heavy condition. It really depends on your style and conditions you want to use it for. I'd start it sanded at 800-1000 and see how you like it, and if you decide you need more length, throw some polish on it. Hope this helps.

I was having trouble with my deuce with the factory finish and a fairly small weight hole. (Wet-Dry overreaction on our THS.) I had the weight hole enlarged and went to 320 grit sanded perpendicular to the track then a rubdown with storm #2 polish. Since then it's behaving much better, and has become my benchmark ball. It also helped when I reduced my axis rotation so it rolls up earlier rather than jumping at the end.
