Default cleaning hinge pin recess

Can anyone recommend a method of cleaning the hinge pin recess that isn't too aggressive but will get rid of the crap that's built up in there? My newly acquired VHE has some buildup in there- I don't know if its actually rust or just 80 years of buildup from non- thorough cleanings. a soft brush with CLP isn't getting it done- I don't want to clean it so aggressively that's is nice and bright and sticks out like a sore thumb - but I'd like to see it nice and smooth. I was thinking maybe a dremel with a brass brush running at a low speed? Or maybe I should just leave it alone?
