Lug clean up?

Hi all,

Just inquiring if anyone has experience cleaning up lugs, what tools are necessary, etc. I've decided to give my trusty Raleigh Super Course a re-paint and would like to clean up the rather crude workmanship around the Nervex lugs. There are various file marks here and there, nothing major (Yes I'm investing more into the frame than what it's worth, but what price for an old friend ). I'm fairly good with handtools, and it doesn't seem too complicated.

Is this something best left to a frame builder? If so, I might leave them as is. Any advice would be appreciated.

Cheers.
