Agreed. This is the quick and easy way. One of my reels has (had) a serious ding in the spool which I just filed down. Don't worry about corrosion due to removing a bit of anodizing, it's a non-issue.

Basswipe's way will work even better if you want to get a little more involved and to leave a smoother finish.
