So i went shooting on saturday. Previously i went about 3 weeks ago. On sunday i opened up my tumbler. Three weeks ago i dumped all the shells in my tumbler and ran it for about 4 hours. Well when i opened it up on sunday the shells were still dirty. I always use dryer sheets and pieces of papertowels to keep the media clean. However it was time to dump it. It was just too old and brownish. Well the gun shops were closed. then with the holidays i knew i was not going to be able to get any soon. Unless i go to the local pet store. So then my neighbor was with me and asking about the tumbler and media and asking all sorts of questions. Then we started thinking and talking about what to use. Any way about an hour later. We dumped the media. Then filled up with about 4 cups of just plain old rice. Then i added a good two cap fulls of nu finish then ran it for about 10 minutes. Then opened it up and and added a 1/4 cap of brasso. just a very small pinch.
Then we dumped in all the shells from 3 weeks ago. Then turned it on. It was a little louder at first but quieted up after about 1/2 hour. I then checked it 2 hours later and the shells looked all brand new. So i pulled all the shells and dumped in saturdays shells. Same thing after about 2 hours the shells looked all new.
Who what have figured. Just plain old rice. Just dont tell our wives as we each put in about 2 cups or more from our kitchens.
