A process for cleaning (e.g., desmutting) an aluminum surface, using compositions free of nitric acid and chromic acid and comprising, in one embodiment, an oxidant and at least one mineral acid salt. In another embodiment, the process uses a composition free of nitric acid and chromic acid and comprising an oxidant, at least one mineral acid salt, and a complexing agent which is a salt of an organic acid. Due at least in part to the absence of nitric and chromic acids, and in particular, strong mineral acids, the cleaning processes of the present invention remove smut residues from aluminum surfaces without significant etching of the aluminum.
