RE: Mouthpieces wearing out?

Have you cleaned out the internal part of the mp lately? I don't have all of the tricks for this one, but I'm certainly interested in how gunk build-up affects the playability of a mp over time. I'm also interested in how folks get this stuff removed without chemically or physically altering the internal structure and dimensions of the mp. For instance, I would think that aggressive brushing would abrade away some of the rubber on the inside, possibly affecting the acoustics around some of the sharper corners, etc.

I'll wait for expert opinions on this subject.
