There is a Brown Scotch brite pad, it has abrasive in it , I get it at the hardware store.

Mine is a Marine supply , lots of brass to cleanup on boats.

Hey, that's exactly like mine, that has BOTTECCHIA in plain block letters stamped in. It has just a hint of that fading going on, around the edges. But my every day Silca is a bright green, almost day-glo bright, but probably pre-dated day-glo, LOL. I figured it's great for the Italian Frejus, plus helps my being slightly more visible to cars.
