[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 2010533, member: 313"] I use the original STM SS tumbling system. Sometimes the brass comes out shinier than others. I assume it has to do with the amount of Dawn/Lemishine vs brass quantity. I roughly use the amount of Dawn/Lemishine that is recommended but don't measure anything. I lay the wet brass out on a towel with all the case mouths facing in one direction and use a fan to blow air over & through them. I leave it that way for a few hours while I'm doing other things. All of the brass is sufficiently shiny but non is brilliant. The exterior finish is more than sufficient for me. FWIW - I only clean my brass on occasion. Brass that goes into the chamber clean comes out the same way with the exception of some carbon on the neck which is easily removed with 0000 steel wool. I see no reason to frequently clean brass.
