a good cleaning

so,today i went to the local dump.i found a vintage offy 2x2 intake.it has 2 rochester 2 barrels on it.it has 3 outlets on the side,so im guessing its for a straight 6 of some kind.not that i would EVER have anything to put it on,but im thinking i sould clean it up and use it for acenter piece on my coffee table.the carbs do move at all,but it has 2 almost shinny air cleaners on it.i know "NEVER DULL" will clean them up like new,but what should i use on the aluminum.shinny is not my thing so i dont know what cleans this best.

thanks,it always amazes me what poeple will through away.

Try Brasso or chrome polish. Maybe some aluminum wheel cleaner.

I bought a product that comes in two bottles that I use on all my metals - aluminum, stainless and brass. It's called "Master Formula" and it works great!!!!
