[QUOTE="boomtube, post: 291571, member: 9215"] "...there will be some polish residue on the cases. If this polish is Ammonia based then you want to remove any residue as Ammonia hardens brass!" Ammonia is a liquid, it evaporates and dries. We will NEVER find any "ammonia residue" in dry cases any more than we could find "water residue" after it dries. By the time cases are tumbled, any tiny amount of ammonia has evaporated and it's GONE! Ammonia IS harmful to brass. But the tiny amount in the small quanity of liquid polish we use in tumbling media is diluted so low as to make it pretty much irrelivant, and even that trace amount will evaporate out of the meda over night. When the cat-pee smell is gone, the ammonia is gone. Just don't wet clean your brass with a liquid polish containing ammonia and all will be well. [/QUOTE]
