Hey guys I bought one of the official nba leather balls when they went on sale during that new ball faze. I was just wondering if I can use water to clean it or if I need some kind of special leather cleaner or something. I know some of you guys have been around since before there were synthetic balls so someone ought to know.
Soap and water pretty much will do it. Just don't soak it in water, use a rag or something then dry it off quickly.
because the player's hands are sweaty and dirty and it creates a bouncing blotch of vargal plague....
