I've done that before too but Marine strip works much better and faster.

Do you guys have any before and after pics of this magic potion your pouring on your cables ?
Yes. There is a product out there called Marine Strip for cleaning vinyl upholstery and power cords and such. Stuff is amazing. You have to call to order it. Website is restorationtechnology.biz. I used it on my vinyl on a 2005 42 Sundancer I just bought and the seats look amazing. Give it a shot!
That’s interesting.I found a paint stripper with the same chemical make-up as Marine Strip. Used a paint stripper sanding mesh pad to wipe/lightly scrub the cord. It worked beautifully. It did not make the cord sticky (it was already sticky from sun damage), but it stripped off the sticky coating nicely. Rinsed and scrubbed it with boat soap and the mesh pad and its almost like new. One tip though. It dissolves the marinco black plastic rings. By the time I noticed it, two were ruined. Not a big deal. I was able to buy them at the marina for CAD$14 each. Lesson learned to take them off first.
I will not be using it on any vinyl though. 21 years of cleaning with Mcguires and 303 with no issues. Ain't broke, don't fix it.
View attachment 55036 This this stuff is cheap and cleans power cords without making them sticky. Use it in a well ventilated area, preferably outdoors.
