This may have been covered before but I cannot find a thread on it. Using this media to clean brass I understand you mix it with water and a detergent, a powered soap, liquid, etc. Does anyone know the ratio of say 4# of media and how much water and how many teaspoons of soap? Thanks for any help and what a great site.
 
Hello, rebsr523339. Here ya go: www.blackdogtargets.com (601) 445-8585
Blackdog Manufacturing. I have the kit sitting in basement...I would be happy to tell you how it works..only I am waiting on front sight inserts for rolling block..so gun hasn't been shot..and cases don't need cleaning! Best of luck.
 
Like a lot of other things related to black powder, it is a cut and try thing.

I use ceramic media and have the cleaning solution that comes with it.
I've also used with good results:
TSP-Tablespoon in each tumbler full
Dawn- about the same
Lemon Juice-half a bottle of cheap stuff
Cleaning solution-capful/ batch.

In all cases, my best results come from an equal volume of ceramic and brass with enough liquid to give a 1.5" cover over the mix. More liquid is better than less.
