Re: Underhood aluminum cleaning
i don't think you will get good results with anything short of some kind of sand blasting. though there probably is some kind of acid/cleaner that would fix them up.

sandpaper
the coating is some sort of natural thing with aluminum. I pull off the parts that look really bad and sand and paint/seal them. |
