Cleaning cork on fishing rods

So a 3-day weekend with nothing to do has turned into a reel cleaning and rod cleaning day.
 
Nice quick way to clean the cork on the rods that I found out today is using the Mr. Magic eraser pads with warm water. Couple quick scrubs and the cork looks like brand new!

    I thought swabbing your cork was only for the cork suckers.
    I like my cork to smell kinda fishy.

    Too much fish and smell lasts for days.
     
    Sometimes it needs a refresher
