I've never tried dry cleaning old grill cloth, but be VERY careful with using any carpet cleaner. I tried using that foam spray on kind years ago on an old Coronado table model from the 30's, and despite being as gentle as I possibly could, that brittle fabric just frayed into shreds with the slightest touch.
