i just picked up a Frankford Arsenal Platinum wet tumbler since my Hornady ultrasonic cleaner gave up the ghost. It does an excellent job of getting the entire case clean including primer pockets due to the SS pins. It doesn't require any specialized cleaners or chemicals. I use Dawn dish soap and a tsp or less of lemon shine. Tumble for 1-2 hours and rinse.
 
I think you can get a new drum for your Thumler so you can go wet with SS pins and save some time. The Thumlers are a very nice tumbler as well. The Frankford was about $50 cheaper and came with the pins which saves another $40. My buddy tried the FA unit first and had better brass than my Ultrasonic without having to baby sit the unit. They say you can run 1000 223 cases in one load. My ultra sonic would take close to 3 days to do that much.
