Feb 27, 2012 11:46 | #4 Thanks Attomsk, I'll try it out... I have some Armor All products that is very similar to the Turtle Wax Attomsk wrote in post #13976363 It is pretty easy to clean that up. Buy some plastic/rubber cleaner/protectant (mild strength). A cheap and easily available cleaner is this: http://www.amazon.com …F8&qid=1330364171&sr=1-10 It is a car interior cleaner but it is a very mild one. I put a tiny bit on a paper towel and clean the grip with it. It gets the white off and reconditions the plastic. It results in a like new look.

Make sure what you use is mild. Also it is very important that the product you use is made for plastics and rubber. My flickr
