Things You'll Need:

-
Step 1
Place the dirty lacrosse balls into the dishwasher on the top rack. Run the dishwasher on a regular setting with the correct amount of detergent. Make sure the balls don't fall through the top rack onto the heating element of the dishwasher.
-
Step 2
Fill a basin with steaming hot water. Place the lacrosse balls into the basin and allow to soak in the hot water for 5 minutes. Remove the balls and apply foaming shaving cream to each ball. Wipe with paper towels.
-
Step 3
Place the lacrosse balls in a dry area and spray thoroughly with Westley's Blech-White tire cleaner. Allow the Westley's to sit for a few minutes and then use a sponge to scrub the scuff marks off the ball. Rinse with water and repeat as necessary.
-
Step 1
Scuff up a clean and dry lacrosse ball using 220 grit sandpaper to increase the gripping ability of the ball. Rotate the ball in your hand as you rub the sandpaper on the ball.
-
Step 2
Apply rubbing compound to a rag and work this into the lacrosse ball. Rubbing compound is used to carefully remove scratches from automotive paint. Compound is slightly abrasive so it might increase the grip on some lacrosse balls.
-
Step 3
Grab the ball and start rubbing it on an abrasive surface such as a concrete sidewalk. Rotate the ball as you work to evenly distribute the texture. This will also remove some of the scuffs and discoloration.
