Vibratory Tumblers and Media
After 20 plus years, my old tumbler finally died.
Pappabear and I each grabbed a new one. He ended up getting some of that Lyman media with jewlers rouge in it. I'd heard complaints about this stuff, but I was interested in trying it.
Below is two loads of brass that had been SS media tumbled and then one dried in plain walnut, the other with the Jewlers rouge. The rouge stuff really gets the brass significantly shinier. I couldn't believe it. The stuff is a mess and a total ass ache, but it works. I actually end up tumbling the brass a second time in plain media to get the rouge out of the inside of the brass.
