a helpful person who lurks here emailed me and suggested bar keepers friend and a househould kitchen sponge.
dan, i tried that site, but they do not sell anything. shame cos a galvanised cleaner would be good.
Seems that its an acid, or wire wool and a cleaner then!

dave, would a polishing mop not get ripped on the raised part of the chequer plate?

No, it shouldn't do - we polished some the exact same way. Depends how "rough" the checkerplating is but aslong as you do it in the 'direction' of the plating I think you'll be fine.

Brillo pads £1 and a good furious wrist action should do it fine!
