2012年5月31日 · Im new to reloading have bought most of the proper equipment (Lee Breech Lock Challenger Kit, Lee Moderen Reload Manual Vol. 2, Digital Scale, Die set) with that being said I was looking for a temporary fix for cleaning the brass I cam across this: 1-quart water 1-cup vinegar 1-tbsp salt 1-tbsp dish soap

2018年8月18日 · Pink Brass: Many years ago I started cleaning brass; some of my methods had an effect on the color of brass and a few methods caused the brass to disappear. There was one method that turned brass orange and or pink, after a few days the brass started disappearing. SO? I changed my methods and techniques, I started cleaning brass with a time limit.

2001年4月13日 · Haven't even tried the cases used in option 2. They are still covered with a green layer. I have ordered a vibratory tumbler to test the treated media. Since our objective was to clean brass option 4 and 3 did what we wanted. As for polishing brass we will wait on the tumbler. I am sure that many prefer to run polished brass throught their presses.

2012年2月7日 · A case cleaning solution including vinegar and salt was common for Army use as far back as the 1930s. Neither acedic (vinegar) nor citric (Lemishine) acids cause any problems with brass. Ammonia IS a problem for brass, especially liquid, so don't let cases even sit in the fumes of that stuff.

2010年1月21日 · Cleaning Cartridge Cases / Brass From what I can tell, tumblers don't really clean the inside of cases but just clean/shine the outside, plus the lead residue just ends up in the dusty media. I was researching different methods and will probably just wash the rifle brass in boiling water (with some type of low sud soap).

2009年8月30日 · In the old days the amount of acid, temperature and time were factors in cleaning cases along with 'step sequence. Because of condition, I have purchased as many as 1,400 30/06 cases for .01 cent each, tumbling the cases clean would have required 4 plus days at 100 cases at a time. At that rate tumbling 1,400 cases would could require 56 days.

2010年8月27日 · Yep. Clean cases are what we actually need and a wash does that quite well. Lay wet cases on newspaper, one layer deep, and in the sun until it's completly dry inside, about 24 hours seems to do it. Don't use Brasso on cases. In it's liquid form it contains ammonia and that makes brass brittle. Nothing is gained by polishing cases anyway.

2019年2月12日 · Use a ratio of 1:1 of distilled water with white vinegar and a couple of drops of dish soap. I clean my brass only 30 minutes. Than rinse brass in water and add 1 teaspoon of baking soda to neutralize the acid from the vinegar. May not …

2011年1月3日 · Peroxide is an acid and is corrosive, count the 'O's, when cleaning brass cases the acid goes after the zinc, that is the reason time should be a factor. LEAD? Batteries have been made with lead plates from the beginning, in a solution of H2SO4 (count the 'O's) the plates in the battery have been known to fail, the most unlikely reason for ...
