Clean the UIM?

My UIM is kinda dirty and has some kind of green sploches on it. I tried using engine degreaser but it didnt work to good. Anyone have something that will get it looking good.

As mentioned above something mildly abrasive will work well.

You could always sand it down and polish it, or get it powdercoated if you want a nices finish versus just cleaning it up.

Remove it, strip it of all the sensors and bead blast it good. Wash it with clean warm water to remove all the beads. It will look brand new
