We also used small wire brushes (welding supply store) and offset holders for the single edge blades. You don't want to gouge, scratch, or otherwise compromise the surfaces. Finish the job with some carb spray or a little lacquer thinner.

Used to travel a lot; I save old hotel room keys to use as scrapers for this kind of purpose. Stiff enough, flexible enough, and a square & sharp edge that won't score softer surfaces. And you can cut them to fit hard-to-reach locations. Also work well as putty knives and disposable mixing boards for epoxies, etc.
