Thanks, Don2. I'll give it a go and see what happens.

Sounds good so far...NOW...

I've scraped a good bit of that gunk out, what if i dumped some play sand in the bin and ran it for a bit. Would that work like sandpaper and remove the rouge, or would it scar the bin too much? I'm not trying to get it super clean, its just my OCD trying to keep the contaminants out!

Thanks for the tips. It is caked on pretty good in a few spots, so I think I'll carefully scrape the biggest layers of it out and let the walnut do the rest.

The thread on walnut media got me thinking. Back when I started, I got a bucket of Lyman's media with rouge (the reddish colored one you see at the store). Now that it is almost gone and I'm switching to something not so messy, I'm wondering if I need to do anything to remove the rouge buildup in my vibratory tumbler's bin.

Will it work its way off with the new media, or should I scrape as much of it off as I can to keep it from "contaminating" my new media? I plan on going to the walnut + NuFinish solution next, if that influences your answer.

Thanks!
