Eagle 1 MAG cleaner. Spray it on, and hose it off REAL good. Looks factory
everytime. Only use it on the engine and tranny, not chrome or paint. Next
best thing to zepalume which is really hard to get and can damage your
casing if not used correctly. O'Reillys is about the only place I can find
the MAG cleaner. Make sure and read the back and make sure the acid is in
there. I heard they were getting rid of the acid in it, so thats why I
bought 5 bottles.

Before I do, I want to get the aluminum housing into top cosmetic condition. Presently it has some staining from gear lube, battery acid/battery tray rust, road tar, and a few other things I can't quite identify. Any suggestions as to how to get all this stuff off and have the case come out looking factory new? I have tried Eagle Mag Wheel Cleaner (Formula B) with limited success as there is still a fair amount of staining on the rear cover. I was thinking about bead or plastic media blasting, but another friend of mine tried it and his castings still look blotchy. Hmmmm....what next, boiling in lye?! Paint? Oh for the days when every good industrial maintenance shop had a 55 gallon drum of carbon tetrachloride!
