That's what mine looked like when my injector seals were leaking. Use brake fluid cleaner or G101

If its just cr*p then I use gunk....If its some kind of paint then you are looking as someone else said some kind of wire tool on a drill.

Are you planning on getting it back to a shine because if you are your going to have loads of scratch marks
