Placing a section of a bamboo skewers (like you buy in the grocery store) in your flex-shaft can make an excellent wood lap polishing point. File the protruding end to a point, and use your favorite rouge or tripoli. The bamboo skewers are approximately 3/32 inches in diameter, which makes them easy to use in a quick-change handpiece.

I have also a tooth pick with a little bit of thread wrapped around end to get in to hard to reach areas. The thread holds the tripoli a bit better than just the wood.
