Great job! What process did you use?

 

[jamesjkim]

Used hydrogen peroxide soak for about 20 mins. Then washed in dish soap and tsp. Then rinsed with water and let dry.

The hydrogen peroxide worked great!

Inlay didn’t damage or stain from soaking right?

 

[jamesjkim]

No damage I can see or feel.

Did you have to scrub at all?

 

[jamesjkim]

A couple stubborn chips needed a little magic eraser. I swirled the chips around while in the peroxide to agitate a bit.

 

[BNads86]

Amazing! Just straight hydrogen peroxide?

 

[jamesjkim]

Yup not diluted at all. I did 10 chips at a time in a smaller bowl. Just enough hydrogen peroxide to submerge the layer of chips. Swirl, sit, swirl, sit. The hydrogen peroxide (3%) produced bubbles.

@jamesjkim do you think this approach would work well here?: https://www.pokerchipforum.com/threads/ultrasonic-chip-cleaning.1691/page-49#post-2319818

I have an ultrasonic and have never put hydrogen peroxide in it. Only dawn + tsp and that does not remove stains. It does, however, work amazing to clean dirty, filthy chips.

Sorry, I was unclear with my question. I posted in that thread for general advice, not specific to ultrasonics.

I am wondering your thoughts on soaking them in hydrogen peroxide.

It worked fairly well for me. Pics in op to show.
