You can't just wash them in a sink? What the h**l...

Answer 6

You can try warm water and soap. Do not use any abrasives they will ruin your pool balls. If that doesn't work they sell pool ball cleaners here  http://www.poolndarts.com/81-Pool-Ball-A...

If you don't want to order over the internet you can find them at most any billiard supply store.

Answer 7

Considering their age and the fact that they have been being dropped on tile floors for 40 years, I would suggest buying a new set. If they have chips, cracks, or other imperfections the odds are they don't roll true. If buying a new set off balls is not an option use a glass cleaner. Other cleansers may leave a waxy residue that may leave marks on your felt.

Answer 8

In a dishwasher.

Really, I'm not kidding, it works really well.

Answer 9

I would buy new balls. Arimeth Pro balls are really good.

Answer 10

if soap and water doesnt  get it maybe looking at new ones is an idea... i mean 40 years is quite abit of use and all.
