Nail varnish remover works very well.

You certainly need that to clean brushes having applied some recently.

Cellulose thinners will do it, I removed it all from our mushroom vents recently, use some old rag it does tend to clog a bit.

You can obtain very fine grades of wire wool (used in woodwork) that will not show visible scratches on your brass, will remove most things with the addition of a agent such as shiny sinks.

Yes Scotch Bright pan scrub type material is available in various grades and sheet form from good chandlers. On heavily tarnished brass I use it with Shiny Sinks, then wash off and finish job with Brasso.

Cellulose thinners (on a rag) is certainly what I would use.

 

(some clear 'brass clear finishes' similar to Incralac can also be removed with methylated spirit on a rag

It will remove paint as well so take care but it is certainly the stuff.
