The first step we take is always to throughly examine the condition of the ball, find any significant problem areas and plan the best course of action and techniques required to restore it to its best possible standard.

Once have a plan, we begin to work through the steps in order, E.g. install bladder guard, replace bladder, re-lace, initial condition and tack, apply heat, apply mini mud, ensuring we are working in an order that will not wear the leather down further. 

The last steps we take are always to re-examine our results and check for eveness of application of all the steps before giving the balls one last mainteance and game prep service so they're ready to fly.
