I have about 500 CBs for .45 ACP sized and lubed with Carnauba Red. When I bought the lube, though, I failed to tell Glenn that I just push the CBs through my Star sizer/lubricator and into a box. There they sat for a week or so until I decided to do some reloading yesterday. Turns out, even in a cool basement, they've all stuck together, and when I separate them, the lube comes out in clumps. (I didn't have this problem with the Rooster Red I had been using until it went out of production.)
So, I need to remove the lube so I can run the CBs through the sizer with a non-sticky lube.
I had two ideas:
1. Dump them into a can of gasoline and swish them around. I have no idea (yet) if gas will remove Carnauba Red.
2. Put them on paper towels in a 180-degree oven for a few minutes and hope the lube melts off and is soaked up by the paper towels.
Will either method work, or are there better methods I don't know about?
Thank you,
Richard
