Daniel I did end up using a burr on the end of a Dremel (Dremel wasn't on, just used it as a handle) -

and kept on rubbing the burr back and forth whilst wearing one of these single eye loops -

Took quite awhile and then used some 1000 wet & dry glued on to a small piece of dowel and polished it.
The loop was a PITA to use but made it easy to see what I was doing and magnified what I had to remove magnificently.
