Get some hand cleaner from an automotive parts supply place. It's typically
a gel that dissolves grease. Apply it to a dry cable and work it into the
grime. The resulting residue is water soluable, so just rinse it off.

Some of the brands I've seen are GO-JO and Fast Orange. These cleaners may
or may not have an abrasive grit mixed into them. I don't find the grit
necessary, but others must. It's not a bad thing to have around a boat
anyway.

I have a set of grungy looking yellow 50 amp cables that I'd like to
clean up.

Does anyone know of a good cleaning product and/or technique short of
going out and buying new ones?
