Help!!! :swoon: I think I just did something really dumb and I need to know if there's a way out. I recently returned from a 4000 mile trip through Colorado (Awesome, by the way). My bike was filthy, as you might imagine. It was caked with road tar and bugs and dirt. I decided I'd use oven cleaner to get the major gunk off the leading surfaces of the bike. For the most part it worked remarkably well. The only real problem is that it discolored my cast aluminum fork tubes. Does anyone out there know what I can (if anything) do to bring back the normal patina? Right now they have a blackish caste.
