Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure your vibratory tumbler is clean and dry.
- Add the Gunson Resin Media to the tumbler bowl. Do not overfill; typically, fill the bowl 1/2 to 2/3 full with media and parts combined.
- Place the parts to be cleaned into the tumbler with the media.
- Add a small amount of water and a suitable cleaning solution if recommended by your tumbler manufacturer (optional, depending on the task).
- Secure the tumbler lid and run the machine according to its instructions.
Compatibility:
This Gunson media is designed to work effectively with Gunson vibratory tumblers. It is also generally compatible with other brands of vibratory tumblers that use dry or wet media tumbling methods. The medium-grade resin is suitable for most ferrous metals and plastics.
Care:
- After use, separate the media from the parts. Rinse the media with clean water if a wet tumbling process was used, and allow it to air dry completely before storage.
- Store the media in a dry place to prevent clumping.
- The resin media will gradually wear down with use. Monitor its condition; if it becomes overly fine or a significant amount is lost, it may be time to replenish your supply.
