Wet tumbling is an excellent way to clean brass (especially with the primer lead dust scare currently going on). A lot of folks use stainless steel pins, but actually anything harder than brass will work. Check out some blasting/metal finishing supply houses to see the variety of media used. http://www.mcmaster.com/#additional-media/=mnc3vr
