Most Brazilian networks at IX.br peer openly, but the large eyeball networks do not — they publish selective or restrictive policies with traffic ratio and presence requirements. Check PeeringDB before assuming you will reach them.
The route servers give you the open majority in one session. The selective ones are a separate conversation, and usually a later one.

Every network at an exchange publishes a peering policy: the terms under which it will or will not peer with you. Reading them before you ask saves a lot of unanswered email.
Will peer with essentially anyone present at the exchange, usually through the route servers and with no negotiation. Most networks at IX.br are here, which is why the exchange is worth joining even for a small network.
Will peer if you meet conditions — a traffic minimum, presence in more than one location, a roughly balanced ratio. These are the policies worth reading carefully, because you may already qualify without realising it.
Peers only with networks of similar scale. Asking is not offensive, but expect no for a while, and understand that the answer can change as you grow.
Short and specific. Your ASN, where you are present, roughly how much traffic you exchange with them today and in which direction, and your PeeringDB link. Nothing else. A long message asking a network to peer without saying what you carry is the kind that gets ignored.
If the answer is no, the useful follow-up is asking what would change it. Ratios and volumes move, and a no this year is frequently a yes next year.
Keep your PeeringDB record and IRR objects current, because the network on the other side is filtering against them. Watch for sessions that quietly drop and stay down — traffic silently shifting back to paid transit is a cost increase nobody notices until the invoice.
