Most speakers are made with mdf. On top of the mdf you may find veneer if you are lucky. If you find sticky paper, you probably shouldn't bother doing this procedure at all anyway.

I clean them up nicely; maybe use a brown maker or stain marker to touch up the scratches. Use a finish restorer or just furniture polish off the shelf. You'd be surprised how nice they can look with just a good scrubbing with a rag and some off the shelf lemon or orange oil furniture spray.

I took the cloth speaker covers out to the back yard and sprayed them with 409 and the hose to get twenty years worth of nicotine out of them. The color fast synthetic material looked great when I was done. Use your head if your panels are not synthetic, woolite and a damp rag may be better. However, the synthetics were cheaper so that's mostly what I've found.
