Grip Cleaning

[Andy4Par]

Can anyone offer some advice on cleaning grips.
What type of cleaner should be used? How often grips should be cleaned?
Thanks

I find that warm water and a mild detergent (e.g., light dish soap)does a great job. Just make sure to give them a rub down with a dry non-linting towel so they don't become slippery (I find they get slippery if you just let them air dry).

Happy cleaning.

I sock the grips in water for 30 minutes (no soap or detergent of any kind) and then clean all dust off by brusing with a nylon brush. I pat them dry with a clean towel and let them dry completely.

This is a note I have read in other golf publications and on the board here. I read it, again, in the Golf Magazine June 2002:

"To restore tackiness, wipe grips with a wash cloth, dish soap and warm water. Rinse well and towel dry. This will also slow glove deterioration."
