Birchwood Casey brass case cleaner works like a charm. Try it and you'll be a believer. Here's a tip. Mix up the working solution in a clear plastic of glass container. Drop in the dirty brass, put the container outside in full sun and come back in an hour or so. The sun wull heat up the mix, (like sun tea). The hot mix and sun heating the brass REALLY cleans the metal. No tumbling needed afterward. The mix can be reused many times. Just pop the container back into the sun.
