500 grams hot or warm water
125 grams vinegar
1tea spoon dish washing liquid
1 heaped tea spoon salt.

Soak for about 1 or 2 hours giving a good shake in a plastic container occasionally.

Come out fairly clean, about 90% carbon removed. But no bling.

Rinse well after to remove all acid and soap.

Need to run it for half hour with the Polish and media before adding brass though or it clumps in cases I found on 1st try.



Cheers Mate, The Mrs has already brought be me home the critic acid which i am going to give a whirl. But i will definitely jot down the NuFinish for next time. :thumbsup:
