I use hand dishwashing detergent and super hot water in a tumbler.. I get a nice "tactical" finish as stated above, and it's uber cheap. Rinse out well and pour the cleaned brass into an old cotton towel, roll it up and shift the brass from one end to the other a few times, then pour it out on a towel or cardboard box to dry, and yer done
That works and looks great for fairly clean brass, but I've had brass with powder or primer (don't know which) residue inside the case which wouldn't come out without an abrasive such as walnut or corn cob.

Just cosmetic after that soapy water does it's job..
If it builds up enough after a few loadings, it can flake off when inserting the bullet and crimping. This obstructs the burn from the primer forward.
Competitive shooters spend far more time on case prep than anything else.
I don't, however, expect anyone else to be as anal as I am. I imagine you're fine.
