heres what i do for those nasty controller cases with who knows what on it.

First i remove all the electronics from the case and get all the plastic pieces then soak the pieces in 1 part bleach, 5 parts hot water. let it soak for 10 minutes and then i use an old toothbrush and scrub all the crap out of it... makes the customer think its a brand new case!!!

If there is stuff that won't come off after the first wash... dry the case and use a bit of isopropyl alcohol or "rubbing alcohol" and wipe the residue off then rinse & dry.

the bleach just disinfects it. this won't remove scratches it just cleans the crud out of everything (note crease on the side of your controller collects pure crap). ewww

the bleach won't whiten plastic unless you leave it there all night.
