Ok, how about the screw holes?

In Response To: rebedding stanchions (Tim Sharpe P21 "Jenny Lyn")

I got the deck looking pretty good- used a razor, followed by Anti-bond and then washed with acetone.

Here's the next question: Do you have any tricks to cleaning out the holes? I pulled out what I could grab with a needle-nose pliers, and then scraped a bit with the auger blade on my Swiss army knife, but I didn't want to destroy the threads, so it was only marginally clean. Any suggestions?
