I've seen my repairman make final adjustments sometimes by inserting a piece of fine grit abrasive between the two surfaces against the cork, pressing the pieces together and pulling the abrasive out, repeating until the needed clearance is reached. I've done the same occasionally when replacing the cork on the linkage between the thumb ring and the top LH ring. Once teflon is cemented over the cork, you couldn't sand it down any farther. Same with the cork under the upper bridge key. That's why I've asked what surfaces we're talking about so I can visualize it better.
