Several different methods in that thread, unsure which was used here.
The badge would have had a blackened finish originally but it looks like it now only remains on about 40% of the front.
Strictly speaking you are removing or trying to, I think (?), it’s original finish so this is not really a cleaning job.
As to what to do, I personally don’t like the calico look but equally I wouldn’t want to strip it’s original finish… so I likely would’ve passed on it.
Unless I’ve misunderstood the situation or what you are trying to achieve?
