I haven't considered using RCBS case lube Version 2:

"Medical conditions aggravated by exposure: Skin and respiratory disorders as well as conditions involving (kidney,liver) may be aggravated by prolonged exposure to this product."

I know the labeling says "non-toxic", the MSDS cautions against prolonged exposure. G-C lubricants make the product for RCBS. Also read "Target Organs: Repeated overexposure to alkanolomines may cause liver and kidney damage." Repeated overexposure can be long term exposure , a cumulative effect over many years. RCBS's "Die Cleaner Aerosol" still has Trichloroethylene !!! I enjoy using their hand loading equipment , I steer clear of RCBS chemicals because of safety warnings on most of their safety data sheets. There are new non-toxic safe products available that are indeed non-toxic.

I am considering MPro7 with a wet patch :

Works great on cleaning bores too !!!

Redding has a simple suggestion to use the same procedures, with the same equipment and solvents, that you use to clean the bore of your rifle or handgun when cleaning a die set. This may be great on brass too - worth a try. Also found some home brew formulas on Ruger forum to try, 303 Carbine's suggestion has some strong merit - similar formula. Diluted non-toxic "Simple Green" (sold at Home Depot) can be used safely in ultra sonic cleaners.

Redding has a plant-based sizing lube called "Biolube" which is completely bio-degradable and non-toxic.
