I used wet 800 grit sandpaper on my Imco lower. the tarnish came off very easily with a liberal application of water. The aluminum will clog up your sandpaper quickly if you try to do it dry. 800 grit wont get it shiny, more like the brushed aluminum/Satin look that they have from the factory.
I then put on a couple coats of wax just for good measure.
