Cables going to the printer connector, the keyboard connector and to the terminal strips at the back of the 28 cabinet get white stuff on the surface of the plastic (vinyl?) sleeve.  The sleeve also gets stiff.  

I'm trying to do a LESU transplant and the new one was stored with the cables wrapped around the LESU resulting in them being set in positions incompatible with how they need to lie in the cabinet. 

I've seen these sleeves in both black and clear versions.  Since they both get the white stuff with age I assume similar materials.  Current project is the clear version. 

I've started some treatment with Armor All based on web search info.  

I'm certainly open to better options.
