Re: Brass Cleaning

Just a little info I called clemtex in Dallas
they have a 50# bag for 20 dollars and change said they have samples out to pick your grade.
They will come up on Google and have different locations.
I gave about $25 at Academy for 5# box of RCBS 12 with a package of wax to throw in the tumbler.
Dallas next week here i come.

Thanks Charles for it info.

Re: Brass Cleaning

Thanks guys for the good info.
I think I will try the walnuts first and in the summer jump to the Harbor Freight wet tumbler.
I did not start tumbling with corn cob till the late ninetys and I guess I am just getting pickey.
Those in the photo look like factory.
Again thanks .

Brass Cleaning

I have used corncob tumbler for a long time and on larger brass 38sp and 357 44mag i does a good enough job. I am having
trouble cleaning 380 and 25
acp to my liking. 9 mm mostly ok. I tried a ultrasonic cleaner but it was not what I expected.
I used some cleaner called Bendix metal clean along time a go to clean brass matrices and it did them with out much effort on my part.
They have discontinued the Bendix metal clean. Does anyone here have much experience with wet metal Pins?
Any comments would be appreciated.
