Something I have heard about on an AM ham forum is putting the capacitors in a pot with crushed tomatoes and using a low heat. Make sure the plates are completely covered. Not sure how long it takes but apparently the low acidity of the tomatoes will make the plates look like new. I never heard of it before but several old timers running some pretty heavy iron swear by it.  Just wash thoroughly after and lube the shaft bearings.
