SODA BLAST!
Best ever way to clean and leave the substrate as it was. Soda blasting
creates tiny explosions when gently impacting the surface you are cleaning.
Just get a hand held Gravity feed sand blaster from Harbor Freight and
hook up air. 70 lbs pressure does well. Smallest bag of soda is 50 lbs.
Tractor supply may have smaller.

I've used this technique on my vintage Coleman lanterns and it works great.
Leaves paint, nickel plating and Chimney glazing in great condition. Even
used it to clean original splooge around windows, end cap groves and door
way detailing on MAYDAY (my GMC) in preparation for painting.
When using this device make sure you have full head gear protection. When
you have completed you-self, your project, and the soda on your driveway.
It is eco-friendly and keeps the neighbors from complaining.

Living on a waterfront is not a matter of life or death. Its more
important than that.
