Subject: [CR]How do you clean Carlton/Sun brake hoods?

What is a good product to clean old, white Carlton and Sun brake hoods? They're nice and rubbery and have no cracks, but they are kind of smudged with cable lube and miscellaneous soiling from having layed around in a bin full of old brake levers for 30 years.

Also, after you clean them, is there anything to apply to keep them from drying out?
