Today was supposed to be "working on the Maytag wringer" day. And, I did, to some extent.
But, while I was upstairs for something completely unrelated, I spotted the hose for my Epic 6500 that lives on the second floor.
This isn't exactly a dilemma. The hose works fine, and has no cracks or breaks or anything. I just noticed that the hose is looking a little "not so fresh".
It seems like these Electrolux hoses do darken over time, and there's probably nothing that can be done about that. But it also seems to have lost its shine.
Has anyone found anything that just sort of brightens up this era of Electrolux hose?
If it's relevant, this machine is the dark blue and sort of light tan color combination. I think someone said it was the Ultralux colors.
Thank you!

You can easily remove scuffs with a mr. clean eraser. As far as other polishing, not too sure.

Thanks Jon.
The hose is in perfect condition, except for what I suspect is characteristic darkening.
I settled for wiping it down with some Mothers VLR. At least I know it's clean, and it did shine it up some.
