to do it right you really need a bench grinder with a buffing wheel. And used a compound polish such as red and white rouge. Then clean and touch up with mothers.

i cleaned mine with some of that never dull, its like cotton but its moist. After i wipe that off i come back with mothers and finish it off. I did it a couple times and it worked really well.

To get the cooling fans go by an auto store and pick up an engine cleaner with a degreasing agent in it. Then get a brush, the kind you brush a dog with, like a big toothbrush. Spray the cheaner on and brush. That should clean it up really well.
