That would be ideal for coating as well by the look of it, anyone fancy going halves on a bag?

My tumbler is on the go all the time, i use the corn stuff and also the red one with jewlers rouge in it,this turns the case as gold as a new wedding ring,its availible from reliading solutions via lyman...the latter media is onlt used on my rifle rounds and comp ammo,as i do gr mostly my cases are constantly being tumbled..........on top of the tumbler i simply place a yellow duster cloth,this has the effect of pushing no fust out into the room,simple cheap and effective.......ive tried ultrasonics and was unhappy with the process and time it took,also the lyman media activater/reinvigorator stuff you pour on to the media once it gets dirty is rubbish.........i buy my media at the trade shows at bisley,pheonix,aaw etc off the guy who does all the gun slips in the entrance to the pavillions £3 a bag last time cas i had 10 off him! £4-5 usually..........cheers!!!

I use the red stuff as well. Mine came from Fultons three years ago and I still have half a tub left as I do not tumble very often, it certainly brings them up very shiny.
