Maybe the trick is NOT to do it, but be prepared to do it, if you have to!

Again,  back in the day when I couldn't afford nice tools I had a cheap  
wheel
cylinder hone that was actually made to use sand paper!
I always  used wet or dry paper with WD40 as a lube. It worked as long as 
you
cleaned  the cylinder well.

Rebuild if  you can. I once had to go to a junkyard in upstate NY when
casting ear  broke on a whl cyl while racing at WG. Also broke an aluminum 
brake  drum...and welds on front suspension...   I "honed" junkyard cyl  
with 
wet or dry sand paper and no leaks. Worked fine. The only LM  Corvair
anywhere that I could find...  What a cluster eff that weekend  was... LOL!
