Thanks I’ll give this a shot!Dilute white vinegar 5% or 20:1 with water & soak them for a few minutes & it'll take care of it
Please report back. I've been considering trying these before as well (but ended up selling the dirty, smelly, chips instead, lol) if it works, would be good to know.Thanks I’ll give this a shot!
Newer Paulson clays … NAGBWhat kind of chips? Different chip materials will require different cleaning solutions....
That’s a really good ideaDefinitely don't do that on leaded chips. Vinegar dissolves lead.
Lol now I've got a mental image of a hairy Greek dude rubbing his smelly fingers on ladies faces.I have always enjoyed smelling tobacco off my hands.
Most of my female partners agreed, throughout the years.
I have now resorted to heated (grilled - iQOS), rather than burnt tobacco, to avoid the tar and stench from burnt paper.
Hell, my after-shave (Trussardi Black, at the time) had tobacco as one of its ingredients.

Baking Soda (not shown) | I am out of baking soda. When I get some, I will create a water + soda solution and soak chips and add to this experiment | TBD |
Alcohol is fine. But cigarettes...hard, hard, pass for me. Maybe I should try soaking a batch in whiskey?I 'm afraid you are insane.
Chips should anyway smell alcohol and tobacco.

Following!I bought some chips that have a cigar or cigarette smell to them. Seller disclosed they were used in a smoking environment so I knew what I was getting. Thought I would try a few experiments to see what works best. I left the chips for a short time in the hydrogen peroxide and oxyclean solutions because I was afraid of damaging the old ASMs. If they show no damage and promise, I might run these again for longer periods of time.

Tobacco smells great. My only objection towars classic burning cigarettes is the stench of burning paper.
I have found hapiness in electrically heated / grilled cigarettes. Best aroma, and only 5% of the tar. No fire, no ash, no smoke (that can be detected in a hotel room eg)
I 've asked an American friend why they aren't being advertised in the US. He said "too complicated for Americans"
