In any event, please do not use water on the grips. A safe way to clean them is to take them off the pistol and scrub them with a toothbrush and Clenzoil. Let the Clenzoil soak in after cleaning, to preserve the grips and prevent cracking. The result will be cleaner but not 'stripped' wood that still looks it's age. In fact, Clenzoil is the perfect CLP for any old gun, including the Luger.
