I went to Bunnings and bought some steel wool that carpenters use for french polishing the finest I could get and with some stainless / chrome polish then set about cleaning it up and it comes up pretty bloody good

I usally use Autosol or brite shine. Then just polish it with the car when I do it.

Doing a full rest so all shiny stuff is off at the moment, but will keep it in mind once back together.
