    Polishing tooling marks from brass?

    On very small parts, what is a good method to clean up the tooling marks left behind from, say, a flycutter or surface mill? These are cosmetic only. I am wondering about some sort of fine brush on a Dremel? Any suggestions or comments?

    Thanks!

    Hmmm... I have some - I'll give it a try. For some reason, it had occurred to me that these marks were microscopic grooves that wouldn't just go away with a polish, but maybe a small buffing wheel?
