Which Lemi Shine product?

Thanks y'all. I picked up a container of the detergent booster. I hope that's the right product.
STM calls it "detergent" on their web site. The pic on STMs website is so small (even blown up) that I couldn't read the label.
BTW: I've been feeding my self a looooong time. I searched every where I could think of BEFORE I asked for help.
 
Again, I want to thank you for the replies. The Lemi Shine detergent booster did the trick. It cleans my brass in about half the time it was taking before I started using it. It also made a WORLD of difference in how easy it is to rinse. The brass is much shinier too. I knew I had hard water here but, I didn't realize it was that hard. Thanks again.
 
as noted in other spots - dont get crazy with the lemi shine. start at 1/8 tsp and work down from there until it stops working and then come back up just a bit. a little bit of this stuff goes a LONG way.

rinse with LOTS of cold water when you're done.


even with hard water (i'm on a well) 1/4 TSP is way tooo much. this can lead to post-cleaning tarnish and bad spotting.

i'm using a 0.5cc lee powder scoop (~1/10th tsp) with 5 lbs of brass and its doing more than enough work for me.

if i could locate a smaller scoop, i would proably even step down more.

tip of the day. no charge because it is sunday.

only fill the .5cc scooper half full or 3/4 full. so simple even a caveman can do it.

if i wanted to go way outside the box i suppose i could get the scale out and start weighing smaller volumes, but now thats getting into the realm of crazy talk :p


[edit] may have just found a valid use for that ole LEE Perfect powder measure i have sitting in the 'what am i going to do with this stuff' bin

[edit]
i did work for one for about 6 months, but he used to just snort off the shelf in the employee bathroom and then go all coke rage and throw plates at the dishwasher or randomly fire someone. said dishwasher in question was probably fired half dozen times. One night he told me to pack my stuff up because a waitress left her order in the window too long and some guy's chicken was cold while he was in one of those booger sugar induced moments... everyone was like 'just come back tomorrow, he'll hire you back'.

I came back in the morning... to pickup my last paycheck.

I associated with a lot of them but then I ran a drug treatment unit..LOL

Of course then they moved to the straws like we use in our POWDER dispnsers.

Hmmm, a trend? we go from dippers to straws..

Our water is so darned hard that I started using distilled water for
both cleanse and rinse. Works great and isn't all that expensive. No
more water spots!
