I wont even use a powered disc type under the hood, sandpaper isn't much better.
The only thing I would try is white vinegar, cover the deck with newspaper soaked in the vineger and cover with a plastic bag, let sit overnight and use a small brass brush and wd40 to remove the scum left over.
You do mean a brass hand brush not a power tool right?
Correct, hand brush. You could use a power tool one but most are steel and only brass plated, you would have to find a 100% soft brass wheel and use low rpm. Soft pure brass wheels in small sizes are not that common.
