Easiest way to clean one is to use Castrol SRF brake fluid, it has to be SRF otherwise it doesn't have the same effect.

Will make any saph look 10 times better

The worst part about cleaning a Saff, is once its all leathered off and looking good, the black plastic 'c' piller covers piss water down the rear 1/4...
