The aluminum fuse problems are not necessarily always created by a QC issue of the fuse itself, but rather because there is a dissimilar metal contact between the fuse and the holder, and the resulting galvanic corrosion creates electrical problems on the contact surfaces. Therefore it is important to clean well the fuse holder before inserting the new copper/brass fuses. I'd say a soft brass brush should be adequate.
