Bowling Ball Factory Finish to TruCut Finishing Guide

Creating the Difference has continued to develop and update its Manufacturer to TruCut Finishing Guide.

As new products come out, such as 4000 grit TruCut or the Premium Polishing Pad, we will use this blog and the attachments to keep you updated on how to get return a bowling ball back to the manufacturer's recommended finish. As TruCut adds new products, manufacturers also continue to update how they finish a bowling ball. We will add new variations as they become available to test.

It is important to note that you can't repeat a factory finish. As a result, we recommend that you surface a brand new bowling ball using this guide to establish a repeatable and consistent surface.
