He said he only lubed one case out of ten. I think you have to tumble them again to get the lube off. I might give that a try. I have found out that there is a lot of ways to lube cases and a lot of them are good. Don
I tried the YouTube case lube method you just watched. To me it wasn't enough to lube to go 10 cases. Sizing just got too hard for cases after the 4'th or 5'th. But I did use the concept and now I use synthetic oil for my case lube. I just apply it with a paper shop towel and roll the cases on it. It really does work well and you never dent cases with too much lube. YMMV
