[QUOTE="Skyking, post: 630837, member: 25372"] This is what we have found out about the brass tarnishing soon after drying. Everyone's PH of there water is different. Try using less Lemishine. To much or too little will have this affect. Also if you are using hot water during any step of cleaning, or drying the brass in the oven can also tarnish the brass sooner. Heat seams to have an effect with different brands of brass. Normally after you have use this system a few times on the same brass, you will find the tumble times will go down. Here are my steps. Deprime using lee universal tool. 50-100.. 7wsm, 243AI, 7mag 7saum, Tumble time 50min Dry outside of the cases with a towel Anneal brass with Bench Source. This drys out the cases. Go right into resizing. I use RCBS slick shot case lube Then I put the brass back into the tumbler with a new batch of water. Tumble 8 minutes in warm water to get the lube and annealed marks off the brass. Towel off and blow out primer pockets. [/QUOTE]
