    So after getting your playfield all stripped down and clean, you finish with a couple coats of wax.

    Does anyone clean and wax their balls?
    Is it possible to benefit from this or dumb idea?

    Quoted from cottonm4:

    I store mine in baby oil.

    Really ? In a ziploc or plastic container?
    Coated or completely covered?

    I see so far 43% thought this was "stupid poll"
    But I was genuinely asking and knew it would come with humorous answers.

    Quoted from DaveH:

    This was from a shop job I did a few years back on my Tron.
    Mmmmmmm. Brand new waxy Tron balls...

    What happened to those? Looks ugly.

    Quoted from DaveH:

    There is wax all over them. I then wiped them down, let them dry, and finally microfibered the hell out of them. I thought that was the question

    I've never waxed my balls, so I wasn't sure what I was looking at in your pic. Almost looked like damaged balls.
