By catch up, do you mean the coating will start getting skimpy, splotchy, just schitty in general?

What's the preferred degreasing method?

The lube from making the bullets will eventually contaminate the moly, s/s balls, and the container that you use to moly plate with. It'll get to the point of not plating any more, just kind of a [bleep] coating that'll wipe off with little effort.

I use two plastic containers, chip dip/cottage cheese type, a couple of generous squirts of Dawn, and hot water. Play the mad scientist, pouring them back and forth in the two containers 15-20 times, eventually doing it under the faucet till the hot water runs clear. Dump them on a towel, hit 'em with a blow dryer till they're too hot to touch, and into the bowl, ready to plate.
