Have a look at this brochure

Then Google for a supplier near you.

Maybe

Hi Paul
I have been using a ultrasonic cleaner to clean my brass for the last 4 years.
I tried everything to get my brass clean.
I finally came across the most simplest additive to clean your brass inside and out.
1 teaspoon of Cream of Tarter per one litre of water.This is available at
any supermarket.
it is simple and effective.Give it a try U will be surprised

Rich,

is that gear used in a tumbler or to manually clean the cases?? Ive heard of people spraying their polishing media with CRC with good effect (however I dont like the idea of CRC residue being inside the cases). Others have also suggested CLR in the tumbler which is commonly used as a household cleaner!!.

Cheers,

Thought I'd resurrect this old post... I'm a bit slow on the uptake. However after reading the article on 6mmbr.com about this I thought I'd give it a go mainly because I'm lazy and hate cleaning out primer pockets. Works a bloody treat and I couldn't be happier.
