Powerwash it, it may be expensive but a powerwasher is a very smart investment.

i got some stuff called acticat cleaner and it work so good...but they dont make any more. thankx for the tips

There is this stuff called S-100, my dad uses it on his Harley. You just spray and let it sit for a minute and whatever you had is gone. It really does a good job. I think the stuff is a little expensive though,

But you never have to scrub.

i found that many aluminum wheel cleaners that contain acid and phosporus(i think) will work very well for this.if you spray it on and you smell sulfur,it is working.i will try to find which one my friend uses(lable worn off?).whatever it is,it is the shiznit.i know it is an average aluminum wheel cleaner and it works really well and you could probably get the same results from a few other brands

does anybody use acid? dilute acid with water and spray on. I recommend a 50 % solution. go stronger for stronger results. BE CAREFUL WHEN USING ACID. also, read my post on cleaning the 400ex in the open forum

go to walmart and in the cleaning isle get some stuff call Greased Lightning. I used it and it is awesome, takens off all the stains with no effort and doesnt hurt the finish.
