See where folks are now going to a wet cleaning process for brass cases that involves a tumbler, water, stainless steel pins, Dawn dish washing liquid, and some powdered lemon shine additive.
Supposedly the wet process cleans quicker and produces cleaner, shinier brass and cleans the inside of the brass as well as the primer pockets but involves more work like handling the water and drying the brass than does the traditional dry cleaning processes for brass.
Figure that gun writers need the cleanest brass for photographs accompanying their articles.
Have many of the gun writers switched to the wet processes for cleaning brass ?
