Juker008 and leadcaster, welcome to The High Road. As RP86 said, great first posts.

I do the same as USSR, except I use Simple Green with walnut media to clean my brass. I don't worry about polishing the stuff.

I use the Kopi Luwak ( civet ) polish method, the shipping costs are worth it.

Kopi Luwak (pronounced [kopi luwak]) or Civet. Range brass which has been eaten by and passed through the digestive tract of the Asian Brass Civet (Paradoxurus hermaphroditus brassapoopius). The civets eat the brass but the cases inside pass through their system undigested. This process takes place on the islands of Sumatra, Java and Sulawesi in the Indonesian Archipelago, and in the Philippines (where the brass is called stinkius accuritatius ). Vietnam has a similar type of polishing mammal, called a shineandcrapius. The Locals collect range brass which have been regurgitated by the weasels. In actuality the "weasel" is just the local version of the Asian brass Civet.

I'm partial to this method.
