Richard,
When I used to use Roundwound strings, and they became gunked up.
I would take them off, and boil them for about 5 minutes. All the
dirt would come off and collect in the center of the pan. Then just
ladle it out. After I would put them in a bowl of Ice water and put
them in the freezer for about 10 minutes. This helps to reallingn
the molecules in a tight uniform manner.
try it and let me know what you think.
