    If your tumbler barrel is rubber, then don't use any soap with
    citrus in it. (Lemon-scented, etc.) The citrus oils attack rubber. 

    I use Simple Green. I used to use Ivory dishwashing liquid. I've
    heard that other people have good luck with Dawn. 

    It's worth noting, however, that most of the time my tumblers are
    washing cutting lubricant off of jump rings rather than burnishing
    finished pieces. But I still think it'll work for you. ;)
