For bare aluminum you want to shine, I always use a aluminum/mag wheel clear and a scrubby brush. Works really well.

Purple power or something like that. From PEPBoys.

It's gets the grime and oil off. Just soak for a few minutes then rinse with water.

Just be careful with it, it will dry out your skin.

I like eagle one mag/aluminum cleaner. Its a spray bottle, but for stuff thats really dirty and you want to clean it, purple power does work really well.
