What you get when you turned on your tumbler at 1:00 PM and remembered about it at around 10:00 PM that night!!
Sunglasses please!

[Mistered]

Don't know what tumbling system you are using but here is two hours with water, vinegar & pins!

same here .... specially the forget part

[Travlin]

I have The Lyman (pumpkin) vibrating cleaner and a lot of the crushed walnut shells. My late friend left me an ultrasonic cleaner and twenty minutes in it and my brass is good to go. I use a few drops of Dawn and some Lemi Shine .

You'll be able to find them if they are laying in the leaves! Do you have to blow the media out of the casings afterwards or does it just fall out?

[runnin n gunnin]

I hand polish each piece of brass with Brasso one at a time.

[Mistered]

or does it just fall out?

It's a good idea to rinse the brass after tumbling to remove any remaining media and dust.

I hand polish each piece of brass with Brasso one at a time.

You might want to seriously consider a tumbling system.
I recommend liquid with pins.

[RanchRoper]

I have a couple hundred going in the tumbler today...another hour or so and good to go.

[Grunt67]

Nothing prettier than a batch of bright shinny brass ( well, almost ).

[RanchRoper]

Oh ya, that's what I'm talkin' about...

I can't hold back any more. I like shiny brass!

[RanchRoper]

I just put a few drops of brass polish in tumbler. Works pretty good. Walnut media.
That's about 500 in my reload drawer.

[Travlin]

One has to be careful about using any kind of brass polish that has ammonia in it as too much of it can weaken the brass.

[RanchRoper]

Good point. Will check it.

[Headhog]

I set a timer on mine just in case I forget. Trouble is I use a 24 hour time so It will start again the next day.

[Team Roper]

That's why I add the auto polish, New Finish, to my media sometimes. I like them shiny too.
