I used some #4 steel wool with some chrome polish the other day to clean some and it worked good....but it did start out pretty cruddy.
Wenol is about the best metal polish I've seen.

I've had great luck with Mothers Metal Polish followed up by Eagle 1 Nevr Dull Polishing Wads. Sounds weird, but this is a great combo. Works for me.....
