The problem I have is that Gray doesn't look good on either my Gold Crown IV or Diamond Professional. The GCIV is Mahogany and the Diamond Professional is Oak/Cherry. Gray just doesn't look good on either. Gray looks pretty good on a black table, however.

Guess I will go with Apple Green on the Diamond and Powder Blue on the GCIV.

8ball is America's game and will always be my favorite

I think it's great that you and millions of others enjoy it and I hope it brings you more and more years of recreation and joy.

That said, eight ball played on a nine-footer is a very different game and some, but not all of us, on the forum, feel that at the game's highest level, because the runouts are so easy, it is not much more than a breaking contest that can be a bit boring to watch compared to some of the other disciplines within pool.

Interesting.
There might be something there, despite what appear to be minor changes in processing time or temperature, that affected the tips' glazing resistance. Processing time and temperature may be potentially major --- not minor --- changes in preparing the cue tip.
