[QUOTE="shootnmoa, post: 631220, member: 22662"] I found out over thousands of rounds polished, that you can't have too much dawn, or in other words, the measurement isn't critical. You want to have some suds on the top of the water when you open it up. If not, add a little more the next time. But lemishine on the other hand is more critical to the mix. Too little won't hurt anything, but too much = tarnishing. Even just a little spilled over the top of the .45 case turned out to be too much. And make sure to rinse in cold water. I tried hot one time and the shiny cases turned to orange, by the time I dried them. I haven't had any turn since weeks ago tumbling, they are holding the shine well. Some of the rifle cases, since I lubed them for resize, went into the vibratory tumbler with fine walnut shells, and some Nu-Finish in the shells, and they shine like new money, even after handling, no doubt due to the car polish coating them some.
