[QUOTE="2Old2Care, post: 2503052, member: 121800"] I had brass turn orange when I left it setting in the water/pins/Joy/Lemi-Shine solution over night, but never had a problem with discoloration as long as the tumbler is running and the solution is in motion, regardless how many hours it ran (up to six). I've also learned that water inside the cases either needs to be shaken or blown out with air, since it will stay inside the case long after you think the brass is dry. After rinsing in warm water twice, I dry the brass, about 20 cases at a time, with a towel, shake them out, then place them in a wire basket over a heat duct in the winter, or in the sunshine outside when weather permits. I consider clean brass to be better for long term storage of hunting ammo, my main focus, and use the steel pin method because I never liked cleaning primer pockets. No media dust or polishing compounds for me anymore. [/QUOTE]
