[QUOTE="westcliffe01, post: 1577044, member: 35183"] City water may have chlorine in it, well water may have calcium, iron etc. I use well water and for rinsing I boil the water and like to use it as hot as possible, because having the brass hot after rinsing also speeds drying. I thought the instructions I got with my kit indicated a very small amount of the lemishine, like half a teaspoon. Using warm water for tumbling is much more effective than added detergent or lemishine. Don't use hot water since if it makes any vapor it may pop the lid off the tumbler and make a mess.... Dont ask how I know... [/QUOTE]
