I have taken some of my grill cloth and sprinkled baby powder on it. Use a soft tooth brush to work the powder into the fabric. Leave it for a day or so and vacuum the cloth with the brush attachment. The baby powder absorbs a lot of the grease and so forth.
I think you will find that the cloth comes out a lot brighter..
