I'll check YouTube.

I did a 20-minute session on two Stronglight 49D cranks, two Mafac levers, A Pivo stem and no-name handlebars, and a Mavic stem that had a shiny black anodized (?) finish but worn. After 20 minutes they looked nasty and black (except the Mafac levers, perhaps not anodized?) but I rinsed and brushed them and most of the black came off (possibly the removed anodization?). Then into a scrub bath w/Simple Green and then water. At the least it will take two sessions. Same goes for my wife's bakeware
