Member Geoff has some pretty detailed threads where he is very meticulous at cleaning and polishing the chassis parts.  While I know he has done Philco before but all I could find was his thread on a Zenith:

He likes to use Simichrome polish but I think any good metal polish would work pretty well.

The above is a picture from his thread.
