      I received this GHP8 after purchasing on eBay... The seller actually UPS overnighted it with free shipping! Anyhow, I noticed that it's in perfect condition except for the handle labels.  The label ends are very yellow and old looking. I looked online and a quick fix was to set it out in the sunlight since UV rays seem to restore things like this. I happen to own a UV flashlight 🔦 so I experimented & lit one end for only about 1/2 hour. These are the results with a smaller flashlight. I imagine if I left it overnight it would turn out even brighter white. Anyhow, I thought this was a good tip if any of you have the same issue. If you don't have a UV flashlight, I suppose creating a rig to keep the handles vertical pointed toward the sun would be an option. Also, I cleaned up all my GHPs per Matt @Cannon recommendations. This includes using a wire brush on the handles to remove chalk, sweat and gunk. I also use Flitz metal polish on the spring and buff it up, along with the tops of the handles. A little bit of 3-IN-ONE oil droplets to finish on the top of the spring keeps it from squeaking. A thorough wipe down with a old t-shirt seems to work well. Here's all my GHP (gen 1s) to date. I started with only a GHP1 & 4 from 2012, but with the help of several board members and keeping a close eye on eBay, I was able to grow the gripper collection to 13 (plus two gen 2s). My goal is to have doubles of every level. 😉
