A friend in SoCal was an ammo reloader and used walnut shell in a vibrator to clean his brass (probably not recommended for our brass)

Another gentle abrasive material are pulverized walnut shells. I remember seeing a show about repairing and upgrading Army and Marine HUMVEE's and they were using this material to remove paint. I have seen them advertised or carried by someone, maybe Harbor Freight.

Interestingly such things as fountain pens nibs are polished by being tumbled in walnut shells.
