Lemon oil is more useful to condition it after cleaning. Lots use wire will but I would find that too messy with all those metal fibres that drop off . I wonder if a dish scourer is too harsh?
I didn’t find a toothbrush much use either and a credit card you would have to be careful not to dig in too much and mark the board. Interested to hear what people say as dark boards seem the worst to clean . Anyone use a razor blade ?it’s sufficiently thin to not damage the board

Go gently & slowly though

Maybe heat? If not some sort of thinner.
And plenty of elbow.
This will leave the board very dry and slightly rough, so you will need to buff it up with ultra fine wire wool or micro-mesh (across the grain), then re-oil with lemon oil or similar.

I've cleaned some really nasty boards with this and mineral oil.
a vegetable scrubbing brush also works a treat.
