Anyone using Ceramic Polishing beads for brass?
I am considering using Ceramic polishing beads probably 3mm size for polishing my range brass. I would be interested to hear what you have to say about experience with this. Thank you.

i have been looking for 20 yrs for something thats make the case look new even after 20 reloads i fond it it is synthentic red iron oxide 99% and 1% amorphous silica email the guy nice man 0 -
I believe you are talking about "glass beads". Synthetic Red iron ore oxide is a coloring agent and silica is made from sand (glass) or quartz, most common in making glass beads. So you two may be talking about the same thing.
I have used this for many applications, but would never clean my brass with this stuff. I will say you would get real shine on your brass, but I would question how long the brass will last as the glass eats it away.
Use it for a while (on your brass) and let us know the results.0 -

I think we are talking about the same stuff, just cut with the oil. The Syn is mixed with talc and looks like powder. If you were to mix it with oil and corn cob it would be far less agressive (a good thing). Only thing you need to worry about is some residue getting into your gun. 0 -

+1 A great substance for removing rust and paint from ferrous and other hard metal surfaces. It will remove metal from alum, copper brass & other soft metals.
Corn cob and walnut are what I use and have been doing so for 30 years.0
