The TruCut Gloss Experience

  • It makes the ball oil-repelling
  • It stops or slows oil absorption in all reactive bowling balls
  • It provides superior resistance to dirt and scuff marks
  • It makes the ball feel slick to the touch (two hands are required to pick up the bowling ball)

TruCut Gloss is great for

  • Getting a urethane ball reaction without purchasing a urethane ball
  • Reducing the hook in a reactive ball
  • Battling wet/dry lane conditions
  • People with slower ball speeds and/or higher rev rates

How to Use TruCut Gloss Powered by Turtle Wax

  1. Before using TruCut Gloss Powered by Turtle Wax your bowling ball should be cleaned with our Life After Death Bowling Ball Cleaner + Life Extender, using a TruCut Scuff Mark Remover if necessary.
  2. Using a ball spinner - Sand the reactive bowling ball to 500 grit on 4 sides using TruCut Sanding Pads. Note: Using non-TruCut sanding pads may result in a non-desired result and inconsistent performance. This is strongly advised against.
  3. Shake the bottle well before using TruCut Gloss Powered by Turtle Wax. Remember the consistency is watery!
  4. Apply a half-dollar size amount to the microfiber side of a CtD BAM Pad or CtD Power Pad.
  5. Using a ball spinner - Apply TruCut Gloss Powered by Turtle Wax on 4 sides of the bowling ball using an up and down motion for 20 seconds per side. Each time you change sides apply an additional half-dollar size amount of TruCut Gloss. This ensures even application.
  6. You will notice the ball begin to feel slick to the touch - this is an indication that the product has been applied. You must use two hands to remove the ball from the spinner!
  7. Wipe the ball dry with a clean CtD Power Pad or BAM Pad.
  8. For maximum durability allow the ball to sit for 30 minutes before use.

IMPORTANT: Do not use any other bowling ball cleaner on your ball to wipe the ball off other than CtD Life After Death. Using other products can reduce the effectiveness of TruCut Gloss.

FAQ

Can you use this product by hand?

Yes, you can add a 500 Grit TruCut surface to the bowling ball then apply TruCut Gloss using a CtD BAM Pad or CtD Power Pad by hand and let sit for 1 hour before use. It is recommended to use a spinner to ensure even coverage and to get the longest-lasting results.

Is this product USBC-approved?

The USBC does not approve ball treatments like TruCut Gloss Powered by Turtle Wax. You CANNOT apply this product during competition, only before or after.

Is this product permanent?

This product is not a permanent solution for your bowling ball. TruCut Gloss Powered by Turtle Wax should last 6 to 9 games and can be removed any time with TruCut Sanding Pads.

Why do you need to use a 500 grit sanding pad first?

TruCut Gloss increases the skid through both the front and middle portions of the lane and significantly decreases the backend performance when added to ANY bowling ball coverstock. Using a higher surface can cause too much of these effects.

I was using my purple Hammer urethane bowling ball and decided to treat my Radical Hitter with TrueCut Gloss to do a comparison. First thing I noticed was TrueCut Gloss made my Radical Hitter very slippery. I put 500 grit on the ball before treating it with TrueCut Gloss . My purple hammer had 1000 grit on it. The purple hammer moved very early and was controllable into the pocket. On the other hand the treated Radical Hitter reacted a tiny bit later but was very close to the purple hammer and it did give me the same reaction on the back end which made it very controllable. In my opinion if you don’t want to purchase a urethane bowling ball but want the same type of reaction as urethane TrueCut Gloss is what you need. It really works!

TruCut Gloss is easy to use, sand your ball to 500 grit and apply, that’s it. TruCut is a great value, it allows me to have 2 balls in one. I applied it to my Radical Results. This allowed me to combine the benefits of a strong Asymmetrical weight block with the control of a urethane ball. I was able to play a stronger ball on a short oil pattern effectively but also played a heavy longer pattern as well. This is a great function of TruCut gloss, it allows bowlers to take reactive balls and give them the characteristics of urethane balls with the treatment, it lasts 6-9 games or can be removed with a sanding of the balls cover stock with TruCut Sanding pads. It has a pleasant fragrance and does not change the appearance of the ball at all. I highly recommend TruCut Gloss.

I love the way it causes my bowling ball to react! I did the treatment on a Chaos. Man! That really evened out the reaction.Very easy to use! Just wipe on, let it dry and bowl!

This product gives me a urethane look on my high performance bowling ball when I need it without throwing my urethane bowling ball. As lanes dry up or tend to have a dryer feel in the summer, I use this to get my ball further down lane and smoother reaction. It also slows oil absorption which helps keep the ball performing like new longer. Great value for the money! Very easy to use and last 6-9 games before needing to be reapplied.

Trucut gloss is truly an amazing product to go along with your arsenal. Reactive ball hooking too much? Spare ball not sparing? This is the product for you. I purchased a Magic Gem and first use, it hooked before the arrows and off of the lane. I applied the TruCut gloss and instantly I could see it was a different ball. It gets down the lane with a smoother, predictable motion and I don’t have to do a ton of adjustments. I can stay in one part of the lane much longer and my scores are consistently better. Big ball power with a weaker ball look and feel! Easy application that lasts! Get yours today and take it for a spin!

It depends on what you are looking for in the ball motion. Not necessarily what you may be looking for but it does lengthen the skid.
