[QUOTE="30 Hammer, post: 2262287, member: 100604"] A few years ago I realized that "wet" tumbling was a thing with products like Flitz and Barry's corn cob liquid polish. Since then - I anneal , decap /size and trim then chamfer , deburr flash hole , brush primer pocket on my Lyman Case Prep Center - the finished cases are dropped into my RCBS Ultra Sonic Cleaner as I finish them on the Case Prep Center. I use Extreme Simple Green and distilled water. Extreme Simple Green is about $20 a gallon on Amazon and a gallon will last a few years. It's an aircraft approved non corrosive cleaner. Once the cases have ran for a 25 min cycle I put them into a bowl of clean water to rinse - after they sit in the rinse for about 5 seconds I pour them back into the little strainer from the ultra sonic cleaner - jingle around a bit to drain the excess water then "pour" the wet cases right into my Cabelas tumbler with Barry's corncob media. Yes wet. Then put about an ounce of Barry's or Flitz tumbler polish over them and tumble over night (smart plug at the tumbler I can control from my phone via WiFi). This has saved me all of the "drying" time and my cases come out beautiful. I use a little Lyman flash hole pick tool and push it into every flash hole just to make sure. [/QUOTE]
