Which process do you all use cleaning brass? I had a ultra sonic cleaner and it got used more for cleaning small engine carburetor than brass I hate the carbon on the neck of cases I currently use corn cob media
I haven’t ever been able to find lemishine eitherI use a Frankford Arsenal wet tumbler with SS pins. I had a buddy who used a rock tumbler with pins.
I can’t find this magical “lemishine” or whatever TF it is but I do use a little dish soap and Yellow or regular Windex. Rinse well and dry.
Tumble dry? Where do you get the pins?Steel pins and Harbor freight dual drum tumbler.
Think I’m going to find another sonic cleanerSonic, dehydrator and tumble in corn with Dillon if I want it shiny.
I usually wipe my precision stuff off with a rag and alcohol and work it. Most of it never gets cleaned outside of neck wipe down above. Wipe case lube off with a paper towel. I like a a little carbon in the neck (inside)
I had a SS pin tumbler a few years ago and it all but ruined a lot of Federal necks. Ran it for an hour or so at the most. I'm thinking it work hardened the necks. Annealing would have fixed that I think. I never could get a consistent neck tension after using it
I pop my primers first before I put them in the sonic cleaner. Most of the lead residue is in the primers. Plus it cleans the pocketsThink I’m going to find another sonic cleaner

Some never have issues with it. It's worth a good search at the hide on the topic.Never heard of that
I resize and deprime before cleaning I ruined too many decapping pins from corn media I missedI pop my primers first before I put them in the sonic cleaner. Most of the lead residue is in the primers. Plus it cleans the pockets
Wet. Hot water, powder dish detergent. You can find the pins on ebay or amazon for cheap, or hell even Cabelas/BP might sell it now.Tumble dry? Where do you get the pins?
