      Dude! You can make that same glove with using two sided velcro, meaning one side is sticky, the other side is the velcro which you would stick your sanding pad onto.

    So how would I get a 4k fast finish that my RTX2 came out of the box using the CTD pads that I purchased from you? I don’t have a spinner so I will be doing it by hand

    What would be the result if you ONLY used the 1500 grit and skipped the polish step? Would the ball be more aggressive? (Does the polish soften the performance?) Or would the ball behave inconsistently? (Unevenness in the application of the 1500 grit would cause inconsistent performance?)

    That ball didn't look like 4K fast, it just looked like a ball that was sanded down to 2000. When i watched the storm video and view the ball that they applied the 4K fast sanding technique to, it still had a shine to it. The ball that you guys reviewed, was dull.

    If I have a ball with a factory finish of 500, 1000, 1500, polish, and the Trucut pads cut exactly what the number says on the pad, and I wanted to get that surface back, would I only need to sand it at 1500 grit, and then polish it?

  • @sandmandave2008
    @sandmandave2008 2 роки тому +1

    I see you sand 4 sides of the bowling ball. Do you do this only on the finer grits? Whenever I resurfaced a deeply scratched bowling ball where I started at 180 grit, I always sanded both sides of 3 axis. Was I wasting time by doing the extra two sides or is that what SHOULD be done until you get to the finer grits?

    Slightly different procedure than the 2000/3000/P5000D. Even though the procedure you talked about here and the older using P5000D both scan at 5500+ what is the performance difference between the two?

    • @Ctdbowling
      @Ctdbowling  2 роки тому +4

      Though they will scan the same the performance is much more backend with the process shown in the video. You actually need some lines in the ball to stop it from over skidding.

    Sanding a solid is one thing but if I buy the rst x3 with the 4k fast, your saying 1500 grit and then polish it? I don't have a machine and will have to do this by hand. Isn't 4k fast some type of 4,000? Or is it just that 1500 grit and then polish would make it come close as possible to out of box finish? Not to mention the rst x3 is 2 parts pearl and 1 solid? I just don't want to mess this ball up by doing the wrong thing.

    Hey Ronald, I’m confused about your process to get a storm bowling ball back to 1500 grit polish. Approximately six months ago you put out a video about 1500 grit polish using the Trend 2. Your steps there was 3000 CTD pad and then polish. Now, your steps are 1500 CTD pad and polish. Can you clarify which steps I/we should follow? Thanks
