Toothbrush, baking soda and water to start. Stains deeper in pits would need to be sanded out as described by others.
Bleaching cork results in a very brittle product and should be avoided.

this hurts to read. you're gonna end up staining it yourself anyway, who cares

just put a cork in it,    and just buy a NEW rod and forget about it and stain you own cork, geez.. .they arent that expensive... ....holmes*

Save your money, polish up the HMX and it will serve you well

Use a scrub brush, dishwashing soap and warm water in the laundry/bath tub first.  If that doesn't work try an SOS pad with a dry bleach type product like Ajax or Comet.  Last thing you want to do is replace the cork - BIG bucks

I'd second the spendy part. I'm the only commercial game in town up here, and ~attempt~ not to get stupid with pricing. Except for corkwork. The work is not hard, or technically challenging, but spendy for what it is.  I request 4.00 an inch for repair corkwork, a little less for fresh, as it's in the package price of a new rod.
And folks are happy to pay that, as it's lower than other places, and no mailaway costs or delay in the transport system.
