    Depends on what you're cleaning really... Nicely treated LR or bench rest brass, goes from box to chamber back to box, then sonic clean. Bulk brass off a muddy pistol range floor or swampy paddock, tumble it.

    1st, Hot water and dish washing liquid
    2nd, wash in hot water
    3rd, citric acid (lemon juice) and warm water for 10-15min
    4th, wash in clean water
    5th, dry in warm oven
    6th, Save lots of money using this method!
