Kidvett,

I scrub them with Simple Green, a cleaner/degreaser that you can find at your local auto parts store or Walmart, and a stiff brush. Then rinse in clear water & dry in the sun. After freshening up the checkering, I apply a small amount of Natural (uncolored) Watco Danish Oil Finish and scrub it in with a toothbrush. Most original grips are plain brown, but about one in 20 or 25 will have that beautiful coloring like the ones on my Arty.
