I have a very deeply ingrained bent toward making things last, which of course manifested itself in using the same media again and again when I started reloading. Then I began to notice that after several tumbling sessions, my brass came out of the separator with a film of dust on it. I decided to change my ways a bit and change the media more often. I've done the dryer sheet trick, but for me it only seems to yield one or at most two additional cleanings.
I haven't figured out the number of cases per pound I typically clean. I would guess 600 or so, but that might be very inaccurate also.
