I got back into reloading after 15 years. I purchased the big Lyman turbo vibratory cleaner and started with that. I kept reading alot of positive remarks about wet tumbling vs dry. Well after a few months of changing out used-up walnut media and tired of all the dust left everywhere, and having to wear that damn dust mask, I decided to invest in the Thumblers Tumbler Model B. I use 5 lbs of stainless steel pins, 1 gal of water, 1/4 teaspoon of LemiShine powder, and 3 tablespoons of Armor All Wash n Wax, along with 2 lbs of brass. Of course, I'll use a universal deprimer first to punch out the primer so the primer pocket gets cleaned. If the cases are really dirty, as in once-fired military brass, I'll tumble for about 4 hours. If they are recently fired cases, I'll go for about 1 or 2 hours. To remove sizing lube, it'll be about 30 minutes. I bought a cheap new $35 dehydrator on eBay. It'll dry the brass in 20-30 minutes. A good investment. Plus, you can use it to make great snacks!
In a nut-shell, I don't ever plan on going back to dry cleaning.
