I bought a new stripped lower and received this.

What’s the best way to clean it?

Soap and water would be the first thing I tried. Then wipe it down with a silicone cloth.

A good wipe down with CLP.

Use some gun oil.  Ballistol will work great.

What kind of driveway do you have?

Lint-free cloth, gun/tooth brush, any light oil / oily spray.

Oil. It appears to have been thoroughly degreased in acetone.

I'd wash it with a toothbrush, hot water and Dawn detergent then let it dry and oil it.

Typical for KAC anodized parts.  A scrub with some oil and a brush is all it needs.

Good soaking in CLP, followed by toothbrush and then some Birchwood Casey Barricade

Yup. Oil it heavily.

Wet it down with your favorite oil and then brush over it with an old paint brush to help get the oil into all the nooks and crannies.
