    I have a question. do you still use the warm water and towel and wipe it down before using the kit?

    Oh hey bro I am blind and I have a NFL football and I’m also receiving my Wilson prep kit tomorrow when scrubbing the ball is the ball upwards or laying sideways and when you use the brush are you scrubbing up and down with the brush or are you scrubbing side by side with the brush

    How did you find using a random shoe polish brush on the first video before using the kit on the ball would you recommend or wait tell the kit comes in?

    • @MattChoi.

      If you have time to wait for the kit then wait. But the shoe polish can work as well. It’s just an option

    should i break in the football once?
    what happens when i use tac bar often?
    should i repeat that process over and over again?

      Just once

    • @MattChoi.
      @MattChoi.  Před 3 lety

      Break it in once! And then start to use the football on turf and grass. If you need to re tack if you can but it will break in more as you use it

    Thanks for sharing this video, I realize this is 2 years ago. My question now is about the brush... Would you recommend getting the Wilson Football Brush as the better brush to use for basic prep conditioning of a leather football.., or would the Kiwi Shoe Brush be good enough to use..? Thanks!

    • @j3wsdid911
      @j3wsdid911 Před rokem

      The Wilson brush is stiff. So if you get a shoe brush just make sure it is a stiff brush and you'll be good.

  • @rileycollette4138
    @rileycollette4138 Před 3 lety +2

    Coming from your older video, but can you score the ball with a wet towel first, then use the brush and tack? Or does there have to be a specific order, I’ve seen other guys use the wet towel with brush and tack. But I wanted to ask the best of the best💯

  • @roblastra6685
    @roblastra6685 Před 3 lety +1

    Why do you avoid the white strips? Those are leather as well, shouldn't those be treated the same?

    • @brownee
      @brownee Před 2 lety

      They are composite, so don't really benefit. Same with the laces.

    Where does the conditioner and mud applications i see online fall for the process? Necessary? Or no? Thoughts…

    • @Cycling-n-Stuff
      @Cycling-n-Stuff Před 3 měsíci

      The conditioner is a must if you want the leather to be soft and supple but mudding the ball is not needed unless you want your ball to look like something you found in your grandpa's garage. Watch my video if you're looking for a cheap fast process to prepping a leather football

  • @xpluto5483
    @xpluto5483 Před 3 lety

    Hey I really hope you see this and respond but how did you get it to get so dark and to get so smooth I used the kit and couldn’t get it to look that smooth and round

    • @ylorozco11
      @ylorozco11 Před 2 lety

      you get the ball darker by using it and mud, so the more you use it the more it breaks down and get an older look 👍🏽

  • @BourbonBrant
    @BourbonBrant Před 2 lety

    I see videos where they use "mud" Lena Blackburne. Do you ever "mud" your footballs, or is that step only for color to get the ball dark brown ?

    • @Cycling-n-Stuff
      @Cycling-n-Stuff Před 3 měsíci

      That's literally all the mud does is make it look like something you found in your grandpa's garage I find it completely pointless because the ball is going to barking with you anyways

      You don't have to use a prep kit or prep the ball in any way they break in rather quickly with use but don't be like the other person who commented and use your ball on concrete you will ruin it

  • @dkizzy

    A small nitpick from me but if you keep with the videos and stuff it feels a lot better paced if you dont use the same words as much. So instead of using quadrant everytime just say Panel at times.
