Default Cleaning and refinishing alum mast steps

I have a bunch of folding mast steps - the kind made from 2 cast alum
pieces. I took them off the mast before I repainted it with LP - now
I'd like to clean them up and put them back. They're uncoated alum so
have a white powdery dusty feel to them now. What to do with them ??


Can you get them primed and painted with 2 part LP also ? If not you
could try spraying them with Boeshield T9 or Corrosion-X once in a
while.
