cleaning 7-pin receiver connector on truck
I keep getting "Trailer Connected" message in my truck, I was guessing the pins were somewhat corroded. I have sprayed dielectric spray and I do not want to short out anything by using a metal brush. ...

So what is the best way to clean the receiver on my truck?
If you disconnect the truck battery and then use your metal brush, then ensure there are no metal brush parts stuck anywhere, you shouldn't be able to short anything out.
Use small piece of sandpaper folded up a few times or a "Emory board" like one would use for fingernails, not a metal brush, then there is no issue of anything getting shorted.
