+ 1 for the Mother's Back to Black.

If the haze is primarily wax, peanut oil will remove it, in the same way that moms use peanut butter to get gum out of hair.

Hate to beat a dead horse but Back to Black turned my gray tea tray and front smile "back to black". I was surprised how well it worked. Just make sure to use liberally.

Back to Black works great! Another great product is Meguiar's Gold Class Vinyl and Rubber Protectant. Works wonders on 'old' rubber and vinyl.

cleaning rubber parts

Try liquid saddle soap. Leaves a satin finish, no silicone greasy feel. Lasts quite a while. Tractor supply Co. or any leather shop has it.
