Don't know much about Brasso, but the rest of that may be a bit extreme, as you are actually removing metal by doing that. Too far and you'll create a leak. I just use dish soap and a snake, then wipe them down with a polishing cloth.
To lube them, I use SpaceFiller TS on the main slide and 2nd valve slide, then valve oil on 1st and 3rd. I've been doing that for years and am very satisfied with my slide speed (the 3rd slide actually falls open if held vertically when pressing the 3rd valve).
