I used wonder wheels alloy wheel cleaner to make it look shiney.. Which came with a soft brush... Soaked the intercooler and gently cleaned between the fins... Looked mint afterwards...If you mean because it's clogged with crap then surely a degreaser and good steam clean.... Not to close mind!!

If you have got any bent fins after the clean, try some wooden tooth picks. You can roll the very thin metal back into shape with a great degree of accuracy. I have some if you are passing my way!!
