Yes.This works extremely well actually. Just tried it.
But in my case, the carbonization is actually quite serious, and that spot is more of a little pit now. This was in spite of me applying deoxit gold quite frequently. My plan is to sand it slightly with the 5000 grit sandpaper to smoothen it out.
After that, I think for best practice, don't be lazy like me and wait until there's "issues" before cleaning the positive contact. Be semi-diligent about it and a soft white eraser will suffice.
I've also got down to paying 40 bucks to get no-ox-id shipped to Singapore. I'm hoping that it reduces the amount of maintenance I need to perform on my positive contact. I personally don't run super low builds. In fact I've gone up from 0.4 ohms to 0.5 ohms on my cc.
Oh why the hell did I think it was a good idea to take up a job in Singapore. Face palm

Try the eraser first. Definitely.
A great trick for polishing silver.
For initial cleaning, I think it's vinegar and aluminum foil. Don't recall exactly, but it's a common household liquid that's cheap. As long as the silver is in contact with the foil and they're in the liquid, any tarnish will come right off just like jewelry cleaner, albeit a little slower.
Then polish with a white eraser.
Of course with arcing, pitting and carbon build up, this may not be the solution. If that's the case, I'd file a flat spot to increase contact area and minimize pitting. The larger contact area allowed by the flat spot should easily mitigate any arcing issues. The convex nature of the silver contacts dictates a very minimal contact area on the flat surface of your battery.
