scotchbrite but a very light sand blast or glass bead works too

I had some pretty beat up al. rims for my wifes car. and I tried sanding them and realized they had a coating, I got some paint remover forget the brand and it removed what appeared to be a clearcoat and revealed decent wheel under the beat up clear. But now need to be polished for a good shine. Ed
