I wet tumbled my brass using a Harbor Freight rock polisher, triangular media with dish soap and citric acid (just a good pinch). I tumbled the brass for an hour. The chip media is a lot more aggressive than the pins and cleans quickly and over tumbling is a thing. I dump the brass/media into a fine-mesh strainer and rinse. I then dump it into the media separator (Frankford Arsenal) which is the blue thing in the five gallon bucket which I have filled with warm water and armor all wash and wax (very cheap soap). After I separate the media out I dump the brass back in the strainer and rinse them off. Then I put them on a towel in the oven to dry off.

What questions do you have about this process and our equipment? How would you do it?
