One of my tips with cleaning solutions is - you don't have to pour them down the drain after one cleaning cycle. I have a gallon jug of vinegar taht i've been re-using for about 10 years. Another small jug of diluted phosphoric acid - had it for 5 or more years. When using the solution, I pour it out slowly...when I get to the sludge at the bottom, I dispose of the crud, rinse the jug and pour the used solution back when finished with a soak cycle.
I'm also the guy who has used the same walnut & corncob media in his tumbler for the past 10+ years by soaking rinsing, draining and drying it. This process removes loose BP & brass residue from the media. Add some more polish & ready to go.
