How to maintain cable?

[shengheee]

Hi all,

I'm currently packing my house and i came across a lot of my "Old" computer cables which are still working. I found that they are a bit sticky. Is there anyway to prevent wires from being sticky? Or when it happens what can i do?

Thanks in advance

Use alcohol to clean the surface and later put a thin layer of oil? I used to do this. Or silicone based lubricant

LOL. I search Silicon based lubricant, something else came up. I think i can try using alcohol swipe with some cooking oil for those cable that are not sticky
