[QUOTE="Bullet bumper, post: 292760, member: 17844"] This is what the cartridge case manufacturers want you to believe. Any contact with Ammonia even for short periods of time reacts with the brass to some degree causing some hardening. Thats why it cleans the brass it reacts with the copper and zinc of the case . There will still be some residue from Ammonia reaction on the brass and this is what you want to remove before it gets in your dies and chamber. Any polish will leave some residue of some kind. If you want to use Ammonia based cleaners go right ahead but I don't. Cartridge manufacturers don't either they use dilute acids to clean brass . [/QUOTE]
