What is the best way to clean intake/exhaust valves?

I'm thinking about selling my stock valves and was wondering what is the best way to clean them. Thanks

I suppose you could soak them in degreaser(any type that smells bad) for a few days. Any baked on carbon doesn't normally come off very well by just using spray cleaners. Mine didn't have any buildup at all after 74k miles so I have never tired to clean any to know exactly what works well.
