  1. i've always used dry media to clean brass. picked up an rcbs tumbler thought i would give it a try. the tumbler holds about 2 gallons of fluid. i added 1 tablespoon lemmi shine as recommended on this forum, about 400 30-06 brass and filled with water. ran tumbler a couple hours and brass came out nice and shinney. my question is after i size and deprime ( use hornady one shot ) i ran again in the tumbler with lemmi shine the brass again came out nice, but the tumbler was coated on the inside walls with the hornady one shot. i tried wiping it out with no success. the next run of brass (with one shot) i used lemmi shine and added some dawn dishsoap, thinking the soap would keep the one shot residue in suspension. the soap did keep the one shot in suspension, it went out with the water when dumped. the problem is the brass is clean but much darker (like brass that has aged) and i would like it to look bright and shinney. any one else had this problem? could run load of gravel with soap after cleaning brass i guess
