Removing Lube After Resizing

I use the pin method. If I worked in BR quantities just wipe them down. I am a volume reloading person so the pin method for me.
 
IF we are following instructions, I offer this stated in step 5 listed on the can: "After sizing, wipe each case and remove the remaining lubricant."

I meant the part about letting the cases sit and dry. I don't recall saying "ALL of the instructions";)

Sizing and expanding removes more than enough of the One-Shot and "Nature" removes most of the rest through evaporation.

I have yet to experience any issues from not wiping down any of my finished cases but enjoy the benefits of residual lube in the case neck in the form of uniform seating pressure. Of course I also clean all my cases in SS Pin media so there is no carbon buildup like some prefer.
 
For those of you that use the sizing wax, I use baby wipes to remove the residue after sizing. It seems to work very well and much faster than a dry towel. Any dampness left behind evaporates very quickly.

I load in small batches and clean cases by hand. The other day I tried a Lysol sani wipe on some lubed cases and it worked fine. Tried eye glass wipes but they evaporate too fast. Just my 2cnts
