What is the purpose of the stainless media in a wet tumbler?
I put about 200 to 250 9mm cases in a 1.5 quart juicy-juice jug, put two ounces of 100% lemon juice, two ounces of white vinagar, and one teaspoon of dishwasher soap, filled the jug 3/4 water, and put in my homemade tumbler for 4 hours. Then dried, put in corncob/polish media for another 4 hours. Some of this brass 40 pc. had been outside for over a year, and was tarnished black. Every piece is now shiny as new, and slick as eel poo, even the inside is clean enough tho not as shiny, pocket is shiny also. Someday I will have to put up a pic of my tumbler, its different, but it works for me.
