Dirty work, but someone's gotta do it...
About half way through this job but am starting to rethink my choice for the $20 (the RPC 5000), now that it is "murder time". No going back once they go under the knife! There are also peach solids which will be used for nickels (however they are visiting @Josh Kifer for a make over) at the moment.

Working on these Jumers snappers. First time doing RHC, these inlays were not too bad to remove.

That looks like a paper inlay to me. We're you able to get all of the paper off?Wouldn't generally do this, but I was sold this chip with the reverse inlay missing already (that I didn't know about...) so why not finish the job and have myself a blank blue TRK

It is paper, yes. I haven't gotten the rest of it off yet. I can see the base color through the paper so it's going to take some work.

Haha...
Paper inlays are a bitch. Lots of scraping. Eventually they can be made to look really nice though. I have now done a few thousand paper inlays.
If I never saw another paper inlay that would be just fine with me

Lol.... yours aren't any worse than any other paper inlay chip. They all suck
But I did my part and I feel bad enough.

Are the tigers easy? I feel like they would be fresh off the press.

Isopropal has been able to solve all but PCAs for me.

As someone whose wife is on a three day business trip and left me home with two small children: so do I.

I did a few just for fun....lol.
No, not really just for fun.
As far as the easy question goes: I would say that on the spectrum of Easiest to most difficult these are much closer to the easy end of the spectrum. Every chip seems to react differently to different solvents and lots of guys screw up chips by gouging into the chip so go slow when you first start and always start with isopropyl alcohol as it is one solvent that almost never reacts with the chips and melts them. You can always try other solvents and as you get more experienced you might find certain solvents work much better than isopropyl alcohol, but some are much worse too.
He may be the first, but certainly won't be the last. Here are a few quick pics of a few that I just did:
Agreed, I'll never use anything but isopropal anymore after having a couple ring stains using NPR. Damp cloth treatment aftet isopropal and I've never had a problem.I did a few just for fun....lol.

Adding a small starter Paris cash set to the collection. Chips need some cleaning and oiling before applying labels. Nothing very original but I like it a lot!
I'm no expert, but I wouldn't oil before putting new labels on.

Mustard roulettes are the perfect fracs if you need them they are out there
sorry, I meant I wouldn't oil before putting labels on, you want a good contact between the chip and the label and oil might mess with the contactThat exactly what I meant. Looks like I still have to improve my English
oh, sorry I said it right the first time

I see no benefit to oiling the clay where the label will go
ok, glad that worked
