    Idk. To me it looks like it was plated and this is where the plating wore off. Using an abrasive will just take the plating off anywhere else it rubs. It’s not a great picture though, so idk.

    Edit: looking again, yeah I’m pretty sure it’s a steel frame with a copper(? maybe something else) plating. I don’t think there’s any hope of recovering it.

      maybe. Regardless, cleaning off the gunk is the first step. baking soda removes more finish with just a light scrub… that finish was going to come off anyhow.
