Not sure if that would mess it up or not.. I usally just use a can of parts cleaner and a tooth brush and they clean up like brand new..

For the reason you want to do it, and in the way you will do it ... Yes

In a very controlled and specific way in the preparation for selective coatings in selected and well masked areas ... No
