A BRASS bristle wire brush in a drill motor or other suitable power device will make it look like brand new without harming the Al.
I don't like to use acids but there is a generaly available acid at hardware stores used to clean AC units. Can't remeber the name of the acid tho. WARNING, the acid gives off EXTREME fumes!!! If i get a chance i'll go look at my bottle of it for the name or someone else will probably know it and post here.

I've found that the BRASS wire brush is faster and better and easier than the acid.
