Makes sense to me. They used to sell ceramic 'chiclets' to clean coffee
pots the same way. Probably best to be a bit bigger than ordinary sand, so
there's more force when you swirl it around ?
I'd also wash the sand first, so there's less possibility of any fine
particles being left behind to eventually get into your brakes.
