They just need the simple application of the little pink eraser (I was going to say rubber :) at the end of a pencil and a bit of elbow grease to come up looking shiny and new.
Alternatively, a quick dip in TarnX (thiourea tarnish remover) should brighten them right up. Note that TarnX contains a chemical (thiourea) that has been found by the State of California to be a carcinogen.... (Luckily, I don't live in CA. It's apparently not carcinogenic here.)
One of the pink paste silver polishes on a wet sponge would probably also work, but could remove some of the tin -- though likely not as much as an eraser.
