Polishing/Cleaning brass

[NippleChips]

Hi, I have a two plug n plate kits, one for gold the other nickel; I have searched high and low on the topic but I've only gotten shreds of information. How do you polish and clean brash? It's a pure brass hockey puck like disc(My friend is paying me to gold plate his Pimp-Medallion) that I would like to clean, because I was told the better the preplating surface the better the final results. (I'm going to nickel then gold plate it by the way)
