woodsoup Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 Let's think about that. Kitty litter= crushed chunks of clay and other "stuff". Toss it into a vibrating bowl with a bunch of hard brass thingys. Open the vibrating thingy and I'm sure that's the last load of brass you polish with kitty litter. Ever sand drywall compound? That's what you'll end up with, a big dust cloud. Unless you use something, (mineral spirits?)to keep the dust down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arkie_Lefty Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 Yes, being the dumbarse that I am, I once tried oil dry(same thing as kitty litter, just ground a little finer). TOTAL CATASTROPHIE!!!! Even though the clay is baked to ultra low humidity content, it left each and every piece of brass totally coated in caked MUD lookin' $hit! Had to dig it out of inside every case (luckily it was 45 auto and easily dug in), then paperclip each flash hole! Finally ended up puting it in a mesh bag in a load of laundry to get it cleaned up enough to re-tumble with walnut.NOT A GOOD/MONEYSAVING IDEA!!Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
