Annealing Question, Over Used The Tempilaq

I just started with annealing. The process went good. I used the propane torch with a Lee trimmer shell holder placed in a screw driver. I utilized Tempilaq to make sure I was at the correct temperature (750) on all the brass. My problem is that I used too much tempilaq and it ran down the inside of the case and has a small ring dried inside the base of the brass. Are these safe to fire?
 
Use a nylon cleaning brush chucked in your drill and clean out the case mouths as good as you can...should be fine.

Edit: You can also stick the brass back in the tumbler or whatever you choose to clean your brass with. Next time, go easy on the Tempilaq ;)
