Any suggestions on how to remove the cloudiness from this nickel plating?

looks like you have some slight pitting. If you can't get it out with those other products, use Flitz. I use it all the time on new barrels to "break them in", before shooting. Good stuff. If you have a dremmel and a little polishing wheel, it should clean it right up.

Thanks for the good suggestions. They all look like proven products. I may get all three and see which works best.

That looks really good J.... turned out nice!

Got my first Southern Shine down in Ga... but the last time, I really had to do some serious online surfing to find it!

Hope I'm not out of luck finding it again!!
