Message	That would enhance the look? Really I would be extremely happy if I could get it really clean. I can't find anything that will get it clean, and I don't really want to polish it. I'm not a big fan of the chrome look either. I put it in a parts washer at cummins but all the residue from the fluid made it worse. I'm thinking about walnut blasting it. Would that make it clean or would it give it more of a polished look?
