I've used milkhouse pipeline cleaner,...

It's an acid, If you use it, use googles, gloves, and follow all safety precautions,..............

pink stuff A/C coil cleaner. spray it on, wait until the color just starts to turn, then rinse off then use shark hide to protect the aluminum. just dont get it on your skin

Keep in mind that aluminum oxidizes to protect itself, it will re-oxidize quickly. By putting acid on the metal you are removing a minute amount of metal so if you do this frequently it can wear down the alum skin.
