I think I will try some sort of plastic polish - apparently there are many - rather than take sandpaper to it at this point. There are some fine scratches in it all over the place, but nothing deep - so I'm thinking the plastic polishes will work good enough. The BRASSO I have is in the plastic bottle and seems to do very well at removing some surface oxidation, but doesn't seem to do much as far as a polish. Thanks for all your responses.
