But simichrome will really shine it up when it's nasty. I use simichrome on my pedal steel guitar. Search Gord's aluminum polish and should find his website

I use a product called Gord's little spendy but works really well if you follow his technique. Apply to aluminum, let it dry and wipe clean.

Take lighter fluid (butane ) and pour into powder in bowl until paste becomes a liquid. Take a lettuce shredder, place it in a bowl and shred the bars as fine as possible on shredder, resulting in fines falling into the bowl. Old school concoction-buy a green and brown bar (stick ) of aluminum polish. Then there is the good old fashioned way that is the only true way to get a mirror shine, here's a thread I did on that. Honestly the Mothers stuff actually does a nice job if working by hand. Some popular ones are Busch, Zephyr Pro 40, Hoosier, Wizard, Flitz, and Mothers. I don't use many of their products really. Maybe durallymax will chime in about if the Chemicalguys have anything decent ?

If they are in rough shape, sometimes its easier to sand and buff them with polisher ( dirty job ) but you can really bring a mirror finish, nice evening or Sunday afternoon project. If they are smooth and not pitted, I like my Busch and Wicked aluminum polish, wipes off pretty decent, but I am seriously thinking of wrapping in stainless, then it will be glass cleaner and done.
