Default Cleaning case??
I have the original suitcase style case for my 301. It is pretty dingy. I have tried Simple green with no luck. Does anybody have a good hint for cleaning this case. BTW it is the Grass/fiber case.

Be careful because it may have "grass cloth" covering, which could be damaged by over-vigorous cleaning.

I use "awesome"to clean with and it doesn't hurt anything, at least try a small spot first. You buy it at the Dollar Store.
