Question: What is the difference between solid, pearl, and hybrid reactive coverstocks?
A: Solid reactive coverstocks have a matte finish and provide early traction with a smooth arc (best on heavier oil). Pearl reactive coverstocks have a shiny finish with pearl particles for longer skid and a sharper backend snap (best on medium to dry lanes). Hybrid reactive coverstocks combine both for balanced midlane read and backend reaction, making them very versatile on typical house shots.
