The Best Bowling Ball Cleaner
The Best Bowling Ball Cleaner
question about bowling ball cleaning.?


I have a Ebonite Maxim bowling ball (so basically a straight ball) for over a year, and I've only toweled it off after each throw. I only use it on league nights. I want to know what is the best cleaner for it. The lane conditions is meduim dry. Every cleaner at my local pro shop are to add a hook back in, but I don't hook when I bowl. So would these still work, or should I use something else?

Just plain bowling ball cleaner sold at KMart or at your local pro shop or bowling center vending machine. Alcohol is also good to break down that oil from the surface of the ball.

Plastic and Polyester bowling balls don't need the deep cleaning that particle, urethane or reactive coverstocks need, so putting it in a dishwasher or soaking it in grease cutting detergent is a waste of time.

You can constantly wipe the ball down after every delivery, which helps and clean it after league night. Good luck!

How to clean a bowling ball and keep it nice.?


I recently took up bowling. i joined my schools team and the coach said that my own ball would be a good investment. so i got one. Well i tried it for the first time today and it got stuck behind the pins aprox. 6-8 times. after each time it would come up with stuff on it. i also read that oil build up.

i want to clean my ball but i dont have any brand things that are made for that specific use. Will a wipe down with water work? If not what else should i do?

make is something not to risky. dont want to wreck my ball.

the bowling alley where i live has a ball cleaner. might want to check that out.
