Oxidized Rims, interior door handles...

A couple of questions for you gurus....

First of all we have some oxidized rims on our 89' Excella that have quite a bit of oxidation on them. We have tried cleaning them with everything. Short of sending them away to get professionally redone, is there any technique that can be undertaken 'at home' to get rid of this??? We have 6 of them, so it will be pretty pricey to fix....Also, we have some "Airstream" door handles on the interior (many of them), we have a glass beader in our garage that has removed some of the finish, and has brought it back to the bare metal, but it is somewhat 'mottled' in texture, and we want to finish them so that they aren't 'bronze'. Any ideas or techniques for this as well? I guess we shoudl take some pics and post them to show what we are talking about....ANy advice would be appreciated!
