Default Toning down a polished receiver

My ol' Trojan 16's receiver had been polished some time before it came to live with me (it's the one in my avatar but kinda hard to see there). It's not awful but I wouldn't mind if it was grayed out a little. I'd be looking for a quick and easy that doesn't require dis-assembly, if such things exist. I've heard of lemon juice, rubbing with a potato or an onion...thus far I haven't tried anything. Thanks for any ideas...
