This is very interesting, I have two and use them frequently, but I don't have any spots on them. I wonder if the oil is starting to reaching the outer core and leaching color up though the cover. Hhmmm. I also wonder if there is a common link to the spots, so I want everyone who has spots on the rx1 to list everything the ball comes in contact with. I'm not saying its anyones falt but perhaps its having a bad reaction to something.
Cleaners used polishes used sand paper or other surfaces used lane surfaces bowled on ball returns used pin setters used bowling bags used where do you store the rx1 exposed for more then 10 min to cold or heat also list the serial numbers of the balls (maybe a bad batch of resin) find out what distributer it came from if possable grips used, finger and thumb what kind of glue used how many games have you used the ball for your location also list the bowlers specs, rev rate ball speed, so on
Even if it donsn't make sence list it, perpahs we can figure this out and keep it from happening again.
Thanks,
Mike

Justin, neither have any of mine. Perhaps it's a bad batch of resin or outer core that is leaching into the cover. It's hard to speculate.
