Simichrome Polish
For years a most respected cleaner of all raw metals, Simichrome is also currently touted as a test for bakelite as well. Very slight abrasive; NEVER use Simi on plated, washed or vermeilled surfaces--UNLESS YOU WANT the finish to be removed!
How does that bakelite test work?
Put a bit of Simi on a swab, and then gently rub the piece in question. If the swab come back a dirty nicotine yellow (as opposed to its normal pig's-ear pink) then the piece is supposed to be bakelite. I don't know if I personally believe 100 percent in the test, but MANY who sell and buy bakelite, do. So it's not a bad thing to do, especially if you are putting pieces up for sale, some buyers will indeed ask you how the piece tests.
