How do the rebuilding companies do it? Any idea?
Many internet sites advocate boiling in lemon juice. That works up to a point, the acid dissolves some of the metal, inevitably the tougher areas suffer, and pits open up. Less frequently advocated is bead blasting with walnut shell. I tried that too. On untreated metal, it barely touches it even after extended blasting. After the boiling in lemon juice blasting works quite a lot less painfully slowly. Overall, though not very satisfactory.

Autosol polish and elbow grease
They are alloy, so with plenty of polishing they will shine

Thanks. That process looks nice. Pretty quick too on the demo carb pair. However, for the few that I do, I could not possibly justify the money and space. Pity!
