    ive been on the lemishine booster for 2 years now, works fine. id be willing to bet its 99.9% the exact same product as the old lemishine label.

    The booster leaves my brass clean but very dull. What's your secret?

    I use citric acid (basically the same stuff) -- the trick is; don't use too much and rinse thoroughly immediately after done tumbling.

    there's no real secret to it. i use a 38spcl case of lemishineboost, a few drops of blue dawn, and let it run for 1.5hrs. drain, refill with a few drops of wash&wax and run for 45min. all using hot water.

    Maybe I was using too much of the booster. I will try it again

    Citric acid works great. I’ve even used lemon juice in a pinch not as good but it does work. Just make sure you don’t grab the citrus acid that used for making jellies, it has gelatin in it!!!! Not a good thing don’t ask how I know
