Default Deburring tool for tight spots

Hi all,
I'm new to building and was wondering whether anyone has a recommendation for a good hole Deburring tool for getting into tight spots,
So far i've been using a larger drill bit, but at the moment I'm trying to deburr the flanges on the horizontal stab spars and ribs and the bit is to long to deburr properly.

Thanks

Taran

Default try scotchbrite

or fine sandpaper. You really dont need a bevel on the hole edge. Also, consider a reamer rather than a bit to open the hole up to proper size. Proper technique will yield no burr:-)

Here's a tool I use quite often.

I got it free for doing a review of it. Not sure where you can buy it but a short length of rubber hose pushed over the threads of a deburring bit might work.
