I just got back to finding my re-loading bench! What a mess! Anyway, a dumped a bunch of .45's in and came back in the morning expecting to see gold. Yuck! I saw where you guys advised a dryer sheet for dust and thought I'd see how much dust there was. So I dumped the batch into the separator bin and couldn't see or breath. I was way past the dryer sheet. Then I realized I has always just guessed at all this. Help please. Does one media do better or last longer? Do the additives work as directed? How long does the stuff last? How do you know when it time to dump it? how much brass do you add to the stuff? How long should you leave it in? Well, thanks.
