What is the best (and most economical) way to clean up and shine brass.
You didn't say how much of what size brass, but I do all my (cartridge
- about 65 Zn/35 Cu) brass cleaning in a vibratory tumbler. You could use a
rotary rock tumbler, or a big commercial tumbler if you're privy to a
machine shop that has one.
Let it run for six hours, using treated corncob or walnut media to
shine about 200 .308 Win cases at once, if that gives a sense of proportion.
Got mine from Midway years back.
