Armor-All makes them look really pretty.  It soaks in after a while so the initial shine dies down to a nice healthy glow.   8)

grease them up, it's not like they're going to grip any worse

Flash with bleach in and a tooth brush works great, then go over with armourall dash fluid.

Cif / Jif rocks.

That Barmans Friend powder is great too.

Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light."

in the bath with a toothbrush - I find wearing them round my neck helps as it leaves both hands free.
