Steve,
I think you're right on the mild acid part. Once you get the hand wheel buffed up could or would you post some before and after pics with comments on what you used?
The one I had the best results with I unlocked the stop motion knob and turned the hand wheel with the machine motor while I used something, I honestly forget what, to polish the wheel. But I still need a better polishing media.
