Well, I polished mine lightly this morning after having trouble keeping it off the nose last night. It has the slightest bit of shine on it now. This was over the OOB finish.

 This ball belongs to FBM357.  Might message him for info.

Yep, I applied Snake Oil after using Resurrection!  Regarding reaction, the ball rolls very well.  I usually play 7 and out with it as the THS is usually drier out there.  Ball has a strong, but not overpowering roll to the pocket.  Carry is good-very good.  Don''t expect to carry cross-over hits

I''m not a high-speed player, but have avg. revs.  Nor do I have a great deal of axis rotation.  Overall, with polish, the ball still retains well for the backend.  Doesn''t jump (then again, what urethane does).

Hope I answered your question.

I put about 12000 coats of polish on mine, over the OOB finish.

I pull this out when I can't carry corners from a deeper inside angle (I stink from 4th arrow and in).  I can use this to square up and play around 2nd arrow  Smooth as butter
