That's a whole other issue that we need to steer clear of, I would beg.

It would be great if someone local who has invested in a decent tumbler would provide the service. There's nothing wrong with getting a few bucks to cover the costs. I for one cannot justify purchasing a decent tumbler for minimal use.

And in answer to the OP's question which  I believe has been asked before...I use fly paper.  


Ten SS games...but 8 is my limit!

Thanks for your opinions....

Here is my method.

1) I take my balls in my hand, and manipulate them until they are in the right position.
2) I usually focus on one ball at a time, and tweak it to the front position in my hand.
3) Then I apply a nice layer of wax, and massage it all around and over my ball.
4) I let it sit a bit (sometimes in my hand, sometime not)
5) Then I use my hand in a back and forth motion (mostly) to buff the hell out of them.
6) I inspect them, and sometimes find that there is wax on the rag, that transferred back onto my balls
7) If need be, I buff them again until my balls are nice and shiny.

I have also toyed with the idea of using an electric tool on them to buff them better then I could do with my hand - but have not tried this yet.  

Do any of you do it differently?
