Re: removing oxidation
Hmmm. I pretty sure you need to clean them really good with soap and water first and then polish. The polish is what will remove the oxidation(i think) so you would not need to prep with anything other than soap and water before you polish.

Re: removing oxidation
Using a metal polish will help to remove any oxidation. WIll come off on the rag black. You can use a stiff bristled brush too. Try the brush w/ some wd40. Basically, there's a bunch of ways to go about it. I'd start w/ a brush and wd, then finish w/ some polish.
