Depending on your tumbler's capacity, the amount of water needed varies, but 1/2 drum full is a good starting point. Using the included scoop, reference the table below as a starting point on how much detergent is needed to thoroughly clean your brass. Do not overload your tumbler as your brass will require additional cleaning cycles and premature motor failure may occur. Check your brass every 15 minutes to determine if additional cleaning is necessary. As you perform more cleaning cycles, you'll have a better sense of how long it takes to clean your brass thoroughly. After cleaning, rinse your brass thoroughly.

If skin contact occurs, rinse affected areas thoroughly with clean water. MSDS available upon request. Q: Will I need to use a water softener with the detergent? A: No. Brass Shine is designed to work on its own with all types of municipal and purified water types. Just scoop the necessary amount and start your tumbler. Q: What type of tumbling media should be used? A: The best tumbling media to use is Stainless Steel Tumbling Media by guntap. If you do not already use this media, purchase some to ensure your brass gets as clean as possible. Q: How long will it take to clean my brass? A: There are many variables that can affect this measurement, such as the capacity of your tumbler, the dirtiness of your brass, the amount of detergent used, the amount of stainless pins used, etc... But to get your brass thoroughly clean, it will take between 30 minutes and 2 hours. Q: When using your detergent, my brass is coming out with a black film and/or not completely clean. What gives? A: Make sure you follow our guidelines carefully. Running your tumbler for an extended period of time is not a good thing as the cleaning solution can become oversaturated and the dirt will redeposit on the brass. Also, be sure to use the proper amount of detergent and water in your tumbler. Check every 15 minutes to see if additional cleaning is necessary. Q: My brass is discoloring and/or spots are appearing after cleaning. Why is this happening? A: Be sure to always rinse your brass either by hand, or by running a clean water cycle in your tumbler. Left over detergent residue can cause spotting and discoloration. This is merely cosmetic and does not affect the function of your brass. Q: How long will this bag last? A: 1 pound of Brass Shine can create up to 25 gallons of cleaning solution. Depending on how often you clean your brass, the dirtiness of your brass, and the size of your tumbler, it may be a long time before you need to purchase more detergent. Q: My brass is extremely dirty. Will this get all the corrosion and dirt off my brass? A: Yes, as long as you have the proper tumbler, use stainless steel tumbling pins, and don't overload your tumbler. We've taken brass that appeared unsalvageable and made it look brand new. Q: Will I save money using your detergent? A: Yes, in both chemicals used and time saved. By using Brass Shine, you will quickly add the same amount of detergent each time, eliminating the whole "squirt of this" and "a shake of that". You'll also be eliminating unnecessary chemicals from your cleaning process that are found in dish detergents and water softeners, such as fragrances, anti-bacterial agents, water, and other fillers. Q: Is Brass Shine safe to people and the environment? A: Brass Shine uses biodegradable ingredients that are very similar to those found in dish detergents and hand soaps. You should wear gloves when handling the detergent and avoid breathing in any of the airborne powder. If any detergent contacts your skin, rinse thoroughly with clean water. If inhaled, seek an open-air location. The detergent can be safely disposed to a municipal water supply. However, you should always dispose of the dirty water from your tumbler in a responsible fashion according to your local waste disposal guidelines. The reason for this has to do with the contaminants that may be found on your spent brass cartridges. Q: Do you sell other sizes? A: We offer other sizes of Brass Shine. Check our listings to see what other sizes we're currently offering. Q: Where is Brass Shine made? A: It is a proprietary blend made in our Texas facility.
