This is my spare ball, so I don't really care that it has these, but what can I do to fix them. None of them are very big, there's just a lot of them.

These are scratches, not deep cracks.

It's a plastic ball.

Resurface the ball. That will get rid of any non deep cracks. Something you want to pay close attention to is the sound that you ball makes when it hits the poctet. If it sounds dead or flat you might have seperated your core

Since your talking a plastic ball, and none of them are deep scratches, then its not really necessary, but if you want, get your ball resurfaced, that will erase and even out all the scratches...
If it were a reactive ball, and anything more serious, i would have gotten a new ball... I always heard resurfacing helps, but the ball will never be the same... It wont have the same reaction, so I dont like resurfaceing... I actually have a small gouge in my ball, but since its not in my ball track, it doesnt affect my game, so i dont care.. I probably will get a new ball though in the next few months, i'm waitng for the pro-am.

What kind of material is the ball made of? Is it rubber, urethane or plastic? Knowing this can help with the repair ideas.
I honestly just don't know how well anything will hold up after a few games. Or if it will throw off the balance of the ball.
One thing you might want to try is a slow drying epoxy. But it's just might be time to break down and invest into another ball.

You can have it resurfaced, are they deep scratches or actual cracks, scratches can be fixed easily at most bowling centers, but if you have cracks you should just buy a new one, it could affect your ball

take it to your proshop and have them resurface it. Basically they sand the ball in all directions to make sure it stays round.
