Re: What's the best to clean brass?
From what i'm seeing on the net the stainless steeI pins seem to get clean and shiny results. Is anyone familiar with the Extreme Tumblers Rebel 17? They claim its revolutionary!! Can anyone suggest some similar wet tumblers for stainless steel pins i can look up? Thanks for all the input so far guys, much appreciated!!

One to look at https://www.usedguns.com.au/Product.aspx?p=92090
I still use walnut and don't think I'll be changing as I don't shoot much anymore.

here's an old thread for you.
I still do it this way with the same ebay special ultrasonic given to me by Ogre6br.
If it ever gives up I will be using a wet tumbler with stainless pins and drying in a dehydrator.
I dry my cases with a hair dryer.
You will have to come over some time. Mark is calling in to do some loading this weekend

Ultrasonic for $25 from eBay.
Cream of tartar and a few drops of dish washing liquid. With the rest water.
5-10 minutes (your choice) then a quick pocket clean. Repeat.
Rinse.
Dry in oven.
Resize and trim. Ultrasonic again if you want.
