I do believe in Captain Crunch.
So this spring I bought a krazy kloth for the first time... it works excellently. However it lasted maybe 300-400 cases and then it just shred to pieces of tiny threads. Unfortunately, I have no place local to me to buy these thing on the cheap. And online these things are 10 bucks a pop at Amazon. So even though it works great, and is convenient, I'd like to find an alternative.
The krazy kloth is great to keep in the range bag, that's where I'm willing to pay 10 bucks a kloth for the convenience. However, at home i have a ton of metal polishing type resources, space, etc to use something else that is far more durable.
My after range procedure is to get home, clean off the greater part of the carbon on the necks, decap, then throw them in the vibratory tumbler for about 3 hours. Removing the carbon beforehand really cuts down on the tumbler time and I can most times get away without using nu funish with the corn cob media. I probably don't even need 3 hrs, but thats usually how long it takes me to get back to the brass being busy with other life activities, obligations and what not.
Before the kloth I tried steel wool. Didn't like it at all, it makes a mess on your lap and turns yer fingers black. I'd rather not go back to this method.
Some other methods I was thinking of....
Anyway... before I go off in the land of experimentation I thought I would ask to see if anyone has come up with a method that is nearly as easy and as painless as a krazy kloth?

Some other methods I was thinking of....
- Soft scrub on a rag
- barkeepers friend + kroil
- Nu finish on a rag
- Goo gone
- White Scotch Brite with some sort of nu finish, jb paste, iosso bore paste, flitz metal polish, jewlers Rouge... etc.
