#2  HANDLE HELP

Want a fast, cheap and easy way to clean a grubby cork rod handle? Buff it with a wet Mr. Clean Magic Eraser (or a generic alternative). The melamine sponge acts like ultra-fine sandpaper, making the cork look like new and provide a better grip. The product is well named, since it really does seem like magic to get a fresh, clean cork handle. And it’s not just cosmetic—it feels, and grips better in your hand.
