aluminum stock pots?

| Have 2 big stock pots that came from my Dad's house. One is 10 qt, the other 16 qt and marked Toroware by Leyse. They didn't get used on a regular basis.... generally for big pot of veggie soup. They're both great pots but badly stained inside.
I use them for stock or even hot water bath canning... before I found a whole canning set up at a yard sale. I'm thinking the staining came from tomatoes in soup?? Dark stains are pretty must just cosmetic, but wondering if there's a way to get rid of them? Seem to remember my Grandmother voiling water and adding... cream of tartar?? Maybe in combination with something else?
ANy ideas? |

| I found this... Cream of Tartar Discolored aluminum pots will sparkle again if you clean them with a mixture of 2 Tablespoons cream of tartar dissolved into 1 quart (1 liter) water. Bring the mixture to a boil inside the pot and boil for 10 minutes. |
