I have been using moly coated bullets for over 20 years and have used the impact coating method for most of that time. Some time ago I changed over to wet coating, my method works very well and is very simple and clean to apply.
I use a Lyman 1200 vibratory tumbler, moly powder and water. Dump up to 5 kilograms of bullets directly into the tumbler bowl, add 15 grains by weight of moly powder and 20 drops of demineralised water per kilogram of bullets then tumble for three hours or until dry, if the bullets don’t tumble dry in three hours reduce the amount of water next time around. Remove bullets, place bullets into a large towel and polish by see-sawing the towel until the pullets are polished, about 30 seconds, repackage the bullets and you are done. I add a silica gel sachet in each 100 round pack. The finished bullets look great. I should add that the tumbler and towel are used only for moly coating. Give it a go it’s simple, clean and effective.
