For small parts, I put them in a brass tumbler with corncob overnight. If they are really corroded, I'll use black garnet sand in the tumbler first to clean them, then switch to cob. This is the method I used for the nuts and bolts on old Triumph motorcycles since they were hard to find new.
If you are trying to do it without taking it apart, Mother's mag wheel paste cleaner in the little can works great. (Walmart, Autozone, O'Rellys). You can use it with a microfiber towel by hand
Lowes or Home Depot usually stock the dremel felt wheels and polishing compound if you want to go that route.
