I'm above my head on this one and felt that the wisdom of experience on this board needed to be consulted.
A friend and I ventured into reloading for personal use and he came up with some bags of Black Diamond Slag Abrasive for using in our vibrating case cleaner. I wasn't convinced but we tried some on about a thousand 9mm cases. It really cleans them, but leaves a brushed brass effect, which means to me that the media may be too abrasive. To see the stuff I'm talking about, click HERE.
Opinions are appreciated and thanks in advance.

And so if you meet a hunter who has been to Africa, and he tells you what he has seen and done, watch his eyes as he talks. For they will not see you. They will see sunrises and sunsets such as you cannot imagine, and a land and a way of life that is fast vanishing. And always he will will tell you how he plans to go back. (author: David Petzer)
black beauty is about the most abrasive media for sandblasting. definatly to abbrasive for tumbling. walnut will clean the brass well and corn cob with a dab of polish will make it shine.

Originally posted by Mike Michalski: Corn cob or walnut. Nothing more abrasive. There is a new stainless steel media that may have possibilities.
with a thumlers tumbler model B(rock polisher) the SS media is THE best I have seen!! Cleans the brass inside and out, including the primer pockets, and really makes the brass shine brighter than new.
