wiring terminal cleaning?



i am about to install the wiring harness into my 73 GTV
restoration project.  does anyone here know of a good
and preferably easy way to clean off the corrosion from
all those little terminal lugs?  male fittings are able to be 
cleaned with scotch brite, but what about inside all those 
female fittings?  i plan on coating everything with dielectric grease on assembly to ward off future corrosion.

for silver soldering on steel, the recommended flux is an
acid which cleans and etches the steel, and for copper
piping, the flux works similarly after heating.  is there a 
similar stuff for the brass(?) electrical fittings that i can 
get at a hardware or jewelry shop,  or am i stuck scraping
out all those little female fitings by hand?
