Yes, it would work.  It would probably remove scratches and stuff, too.

I actually went out and bought some Brasso today, after reading messages
suggesting that it could remove the printing from Lego bricks.

I tried it with several of the smooth McDonald's slopes (pictures of
Grimace), and with one 2x1 tile ($100 bill print).

Result: the print comes off, but it takes a lot more work than I • expected.
I had to spend at least five minutes on a single piece, rubbing • furiously.
For the first little bit, you make no apparent progress whatsoever.  The
finished pieces were not damaged in any way.  All in all, Brasso works, • but
you'd better be ready to earn those new pieces. :)
