You use a high pressure hose to clean the lube off the brass then burn the brass to get any residual lube removed?

After I posted that, I thought, that wasn't very well explained. Maybe I ought to edit it all off and start over. Sorry for any confusion. After sizing, I place the brass on a metal tray, and spray the carb/brake cleaner on, and directly into the case mouths. This cleans the lube off very well. Then to get rid of the excess carb/brake cleaner, I ignite the tray, brass and all. Only takes about 3 seconds to burn off the cleaner. The brass doesn't get "HOT", just warm and dry to the touch. Then " I blow out the primer pockets and inside the case with high pressure shop air. The residue in the pockets usually comes out well enough that using a pocket cleaning tool is not needed, and the powder doesn't cling to the inside of the case mouth when pouring. Just what I do. Not sure what happened to that original post, it was all "out of whack" :
