Thanks for the tips gents. I ended up getting some dowel, WD40, some gaffa tape and some sponge pads and some of those stainless steel saucepan scourers. I made a sort of giant cotton bud with sponge at one end and scourer at the other. Lots of WD40 and some scrubbling later I now have a very clean seat tube. Also cleaned the BB with a small brass spark plug brush. Am considering taping the BB up and filling the frame with Kurust just to be double sure.
