    I don`t tumble lube. I use alox 50/50 in my Lyman 450. Some lube will migrate out side the case.
    I keep 12"X12" pieces of discarded sheets under my bench to wipe the resizing and bullet lube from my cases....dale

    Can you throw them in a tumbler with crush corncob or will that be to rough?
    I have tumbled loaded factory rounds that have gotten nasty (green) after sitting in the boxes on the shelf for years.

    Any lube left on the boolit after loading I wipe off with a paper towel. That is one reason I went with hard lube it aint so messy.
