I just got an new Lyman Tubro Tumbler Twin and have a question regarding using the NuFinish car wax.
After reading the advice on this forum, I started out with a 50/50 mixture of walnut/corncob media. I then added about a cap full or maybe a little more of the NuFinish polish.
After tumbling around 150 cases of 30-06 brass in the large bowl, they came out perfect. My problem [question?] is that the tumbling bowl ended up with a "skin" on the bottom. Nasty looking since it had the carbon from the cases mingled into it.
I can scrape a little off with my finger nail, but there is still a bunch of "skin/plastic film/crud" left plastered on the bottom of the tumbling bowl. I can grab an edge a peel a quarter inch or so off, and then the "film/plastic wrap" coating breaks off and I have to scrape another edge up.
Is this normal? I'm guessing that this is NuFinish leaving a build-up on the bottom of the bowl, but not sure.
Comment appreciated.
