Is there a good method to return the luster to previously loaded shells? After several years they tend to tarnish up a bit and Id like to bring the freshly tumbled shine back.

time consuming way to go but works. used in air force to polish aluminum airplanes shines like chrome. just rub on wipe off.

Keep your ammo in a sealed metal army ammo can, you can toss in an O2 absorber and maybe a descant packet.
the old card board paper shell boxes. The old paper shell boxes will cause the brass to loose it's shine during storage.
Also, exposing brass to ammonia can contribute to Season Cracking. Brasso and Flitz both contain ammonia.
try never dull commercial product can find in lowes homedepot.
