How To Clean Grips???
« on: February 05, 2014, 03:13 PM »
Hey Guys.

I was wondering what is the best way to bring your old grips up like new???
When i was younger back in the good old days,i remember me and my mates use to BOIL the grips to clean and soften them.
But am hoping there might be a better way,just i have a few ODI mushroom grips that are grubby looking and am wanting to bring them up like new....any idea's guys???

regards
Graham
