I've just been working on mine get yourself down to B&Q and buy a few 
various grades of 3M SCOTCH-BRITE pads, I wouldn't like to use 
sandpaper myself.

I actually tried a bit Autosolve on mine, which does bring up a 
lovely shine, but leaves dirt marks in the grain, which is hard to 
remove so I've now used the pads and a very light going over with 
autosolve with a cloth and it looks fine.

Use the roughest type of pad you can get to start with (purple red, I 
think) making sure you follow the grain I then continued with the 
lighter the grades(green, then grey If I remember)

Try and do it in natural light too, or at least have some good 
lighting to work by.

The Info I found suggested 3M Scotch-brite pads and 3M Stainless 
cleaner, although I can't seem to a get a hold of any 3M cleaner.
