If you got serious rust/grime/whatever issues...



But most likely just use a paint/varnish stripper. I used it on my brake calipers and drums and they look brand new.



And then I guess if you wanna go all out, dremel polishing attachment and some mr. metal:

if you have a grinding wheel or a electric drill just put on a wirewheel to remove old paint or rust, then put ona buffing wheel with compound and lightly in circles bu the metal till you start to see a polished manifold
