Flitz is a GREAT metal polish made by a German company. I just bought some of their new Tumbler/Media Additive. It's made for the job and contains no ammonia... it works great. (I bought it from Midway)

The problem I have with coarse grade corn cob (sold at Wal-Mart as pet bedding) is that the pieces are big enough to get stuck inside 9mm cases. I end up having to inspect every case and usually need to use a small nail or pick to get stuck media out of at least one case.
Fine walnut (sold at Harbor Freight as blasting/tumbling media) is small enough, the only place it might get stuck is flash holes. I'm curious to find some finer grade corn and use it mixed with fine walnut. |

Rice sounds like the way to go. Sounds like it will also help get rid of the pesky birds and varmints from the yard too! Thanks for the tip!

QUOTE (TheBlackSheep @ Jul 12 2009, 10:35 PM)  +1 for both !!!!! Just mix them up and let it shake .... Honestly does fast even come in to play? I can clean about 5 times faster than i can load them ... or at least before I get tired of loading them I thought the same thing - and mixed 'em together, added some Dillon Polish and got dirty brass shiny in a couple of hours.  |
