Ditto on polishing. If you don't have the facilities, have your tech lightly buff the valves with some rouge, and then thoroughly clean the residue off with mineral spirits or other solvent. Remember to clean the valve cylinders and snake out the ports, just in case there's some crud lurking there.

Doesn't hurt to buff the slides at the same time if they're also very tight.
