Three or 4 0 Steel wool and WD40. There is no brush as you describe. Use a slotted stick or regular cleaning brush, bent to suit. Wrap the steel wool around it.

Go to the welding store and get one of the small wood handled wire brushes used to clean solder joints.

If you have a Dremel Rotary Tool, there is a power flex cable attachment you can buy. It allows you to chuck small wire wheels and brushes and is very narrow allowing you to get in tight places.
