The thing is that those welds are already smooth.
The good thing about emery cloth is that goes round curves like if you were using a fabric cloth, specially after some use, so it really copies the shape of the tubes.
I guess that power belt file could be a good starting point when the welds are really rough.
This is the kind of tool Cannondale use to smooth their welds -
