Tube cleaning

Hi, just returned from 2 weeks on the water in Devon and I’d really like to get my 6 year old Mercury ocean runner grey tubes a bit cleaner.
No major marks, just general grime.
Any suggestions what I should us?

I used August Race , and my tubes are in a bad state , and it made a huge difference.. as for the rubber fender I used a mold cleaner , the August race didn’t seem to touch it . Hope that helps 🫡

I used that "The Pink Stuff" paste that's available everywhere and it did an amazing job on a boat that looked fit for the bin. I just use it with a soft scrubby brush and little water.
