Bloody Hell Andy! Did you have to borrow a neighbours Tin Mining Helmet and Lamp to dig this thread up from the depths of the forum!!I have seen it on a football forum I frequent when someone is proving a point. but trawling back 11 months on here must have equated to a round of Golf!!
I also dragged out the steam cleaner (on, ahem, long term loan from my Dad) after I had started this thread and seen the recommendation, like you I have nice "like new" tacky grips. At Vale do Lobo earlier this summer there was a lady next to the buggy park under one of those Chips in your windscreen type gazebos offering a Sonic golf club cleaning service there was small print saying that the process would not damage your clubs, I hasten to add that the wooden box with various holes in did look a little like the Emperors new clothes.
You haven't used the search function then!

Sonic cleaning is the business and I am planning on building my own one over the winter as they are far too expensive the buy new. I have used one on several occasions to clean motorcycle carbs as it gets into all the little passageways that are impossible any other way. It's the most gentle way to clean anything even fine jewelry comes up like new. I will only be building one big enough for 7 clubs with only the heads or grips in at a time but I'm not restricted on time.
If it's a fiver or less to have them done then take the chance next time she's there as you won't believe just how good it is until you've tried it.
