You can get fine 2" Roloc Scotchbrite pads that don't seem to do much to aluminum as long as you don't lean into them and don't dwell in one place.
Kiss the surface with them and let the plastic mesh do its' thing.
They cut the paper and silicone gasket crud off pretty quick. They'll eat up oxidation but not quite as fast.
