[QUOTE="Ronald W Schaefer, post: 2944650, member: 109378"] I always clean my brass because the "Sheldon Cooper" in me likes it shiny:-)! 'Prolly doesn't do much for accuracy, but I like shiny brass and I can see any defects easier that way. I dump my brass in the Lyman vibrating tumbler, (30 seconds), fill with crushed walnut media (30 seconds), toss in a tablespoon of brasso (30 seconds, and yes, I'm fully aware of the pros and cons of adding brasso), turn on the tumbler and walk away. I usually let the tumbler run overnight just because, but it'll polish like crazy in about four hours. The longest step is then dumping the tumbling media out of the cases...that takes about five--seven minutes. So, there is a total of about 10ish minutes of my time involved in polishing my brass. I'm OK with that for shiny, shiny:-)! [/QUOTE]
