*These Balls have been hand cleaned, waxed and polished with BBC product catalog No. 18-14. The materials were obtained from “Tex” Zimmerman, legendary cue maker and BBC Distributor, in 1965.
According To BBC using their wax:
prolonged the life of balls
make balls roll faster for more games and revenue
helped to minimize cling and damage of impact by neutralizing the different coefficients of expansion of the different material  layers in a composition ball
the wax helps minimize crazing, cracking  and  discoloration by providing air sealer to the exterior
We have tried to maintain the factory fresh appearance to the balls to prolong their longevity.
