[QUOTE="Ben Keller, post: 1577036, member: 106918"] I’ve recently switched to wet tumbling and when I’m done with a lot of brass it looks great, but after a few hours out of the tumbler it already starts to tarnish and look grey. I’ve been told that lemon shine is very acidic and using too much can actually cause this. I never really measured my Lemi shine but I use a small sized tumbler (it holds 30 or so cases of 7mm Rem. Mag.) and I was probably using a full tablespoon amount along with the same amount of dawn dish soap. That being said was that the problem and if so how much lemi shine should I use? I like the wet tumbling and the brass comes out looking awesome I just want the shine to stay. Any thoughts or recommendations would be great on what you all use while wet tumbling to get great results. [/QUOTE]
