[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1658299, member: 2736"] I have seen many ways to clean dies and they all work to a point, but the problem with cleaning them is storage after. After cleaning them you MUST spray them with some sort of rust preventive. After allowing the die to set a few minutes, wipe it and remove the excess preservative. Dies will rust and ruin the polish inside. If you use a vibratory polish and don't clean the cases before sizing the abrasives and dust will build up in the die and cause problems. cleaning often is required if this process is used. The amount of sizing lube/wax used will also determine the frequency of cleaning. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
