Why not just buy a 20 litre tub of aluminium cleaner. Soak the cover in it overnight. In the morning the cover will be a dark grey brown colour. Chuck it in a bucket of water and scrub it and underneath will be nice clean aluminium. If it still has stains, just soak it again and then scrub it again.
Then once you have a nice clean cover you can decide if you want it shiny or not. And then proceed to sand and polish it smooth.
