How to make my bits shiny

I'd really like to make my old bike look a bit nicer.

the frame needs respraying so I am ignoring that, but I have some dull looking superchampion rims, which i think are aluminum and I wondered what would be the best way to bring out a good shine?

I also have some old campagnolo hubs/derailleurs/ shifters which look as though they have reacted to something as they all have a nice coating of grey on them. So if anyone has any ideas it would be much appreciated.

many thanks
 
Solvol Autosol good for the rims but it does leave quite a black deposit which will get into the nooks and crannies of the mechs etc.

Soft Toothbrush and a bit of liquid metal polish is a bit better..

PS If you like I'll take the rims off your hands and save you the bother :)
