Does anyone have a solution to cleaning up shore power cables that are really dirty? Our 50A cable looks like hell, and the yellow cover has faded for the first 25-30 feet, (the most used) and it has also become tacky, so it marks the gelcoat anywhere that it touches. The marks require either cut polishing or a wipe with Acetone to remove, but either way it's a real nuisance, particularly on the non-skid. I have tried most of the usual cleaners, including the Marinco shore cable cleaner, none of which did the trick.
As we have a Glendinning Cablemaster with about 75 feet of 50A cable, with a bonded male plug at one end, and a direct connection at the other, I'd rather not just throw this away and purchase all new cable if there was some way of getting it clean, and stabilizing the outer surface finish - any ideas?
