I am looking for a routine to follow for polishing my loaded rounds, I tumbled some just finished 223 rounds tonight and I tumbled them in my rotary tumbler in corn cob with a capful of nu finish. My question is how often to add the capful, every new load of brass which I did today, or another timeframe. If I put a capful in the media every new load of brass will it eventually have too much polish or does it come out with the brass.
I believe I will eventually have to replace the media and start again but was wondering if anyone has any insight when and what to look for. Or am I wrong and there is no need to add this much polish. I wet tumble brass before working it, and I want to put the loaded rounds away with some protection on them. My hands sweat a lot and I hate wearing rubber doctor gloves, but I can stand it for 5 minutes to take the polished rounds from the sifter to the ammo box.
Appreciate any thoughts or insight,
