   A friend of mine is telling me that if I boil my strings for approx 10-20 mins it'll clean em up and restore the tone to almost "like new" sound...
   
   To me this sounds absurd, anyone do this or is it just downright stupid?

    Hey wait, what did you boil them in? Water, alcohol...? I think I will do that for the extra strings I have laying around, just so they aren't dirty as hell anymore for if I just break one...
