I have ordered both an Ultrasonic Cleaner and Vibratory Tumbler (should be here Tuesday). I have reading alot about both. I am trying to decide on the order of cleaning.
1. Some say tumble to clean with walnut, fl size and deprime, ultrasonic clean to remove lube, then tumble to polish (and dry) in corn cob. This seems like a great way to do it.
2. Others have said Ultrasonic then fl size and deprime, then tumble in corncob to polish.
3. Others have also said tumble to polish first. FL size and deprime. Then US clean to remove internal residue and case lube.
With method 3, does it tarnish the polished brass or is it unaffected?
Does US or tumbling remove case lube faster and more efficiently?
If you do both US and tumbling, which method is working best for you?
Thanks everybody.
