Thanks! I started off by wet sanding with some 2000 grit sandpaper, but I later realized that it probably wasn't necessary because the aluminum wasn't really very scratched. It may have helped remove some finer scratches, but I'm not sure. Next I used some Eagle One Nevr-Dull polish to remove some of the oxidation and clean up the aluminum pretty good. I finished with some Mothers and a soft cloth. It's not perfect, but it is a lot better than before.
