cleaning polished surfaces?

Hi guys, I plan on getting other parts of my engine polished since I already got my intake runners done on my TPI engine. Well I was wondering before they need to be cleaned, what would you use to clean them. That is things that are polished? Simple green? soap & water? Just wondering before they get dirty. Thanks!
