Silver Cup Chalk - the best of all????

Pinball is great. I like mid 70’s to early 80’s machines the best
Early 60's my favorite was "Liberty Bell" by Gottlieb. I'd like to play 1P the way I played on that machine. I could hit all night...show me me the Special. The best was the 10 game reward for a Double Hit last the end. I love showing my age... $.05 a game ...6 for a Quarter. Loved those days.. No Chalk, No Cue, No Bar, No Bowling Alley... But yes Just PinBall.
Back to Silver Cup.... wore one for football.
 
Master chalk leaves fewer marks on the CB than both Predator and Blue Diamond.
I've been using all 3 the last couple days and the findings left no doubt.
I must have lost my tiger, triangle, and magic chalk when I moved.
 
I might pick a few cubes up to compare it to my green Triangle and green Master chalk. I'm finding that Master is a little too pasty for my liking and stains the cue ball more than Triangle, but Triangle is still messier than the Taom 2.0 I've been using. Heard it holds nicely on laminated tips, too.
 
This thread was my last read last night, got me thinking/word playing/nightmare'n...
''Many chalks, many choices begets many statements.
Many hawks, many noxiousness begets many crass arguments.''
 
I thought of this, never tried it. IF anyone has I'm curious of the results.
Shave a chalk to a powder pile. Smear superglue on your tip then dip it in the chalk pile.

.
 
I was thinking there would be results by now on the superglue tip dip,
could be voided warranty issues with the chalk though, might be best not to do even on a slow day.

..even so, I've sanded and fitted a lot of silver cup, makes a big pile and said, "dam, that seems like a waste",
...if chalk makers hear of or see this as a possibility - superglue tip-dipping - they'll surely be raising prices,
so...,
...maybe keep this a secret.
