That’s what I did. They cleaned up pretty fast.

Yep, they do clean pretty fast, I guess I'm just slow. I did a barrel today, in shifts lol.

 

[BamaT8ter]

No dawn?

I did use Dawn on the T100s. They were the dirtiest.

 

[iLogik]

I soaked in dawn for 15mins and then magic brush…. I must also be slow cuz I still have 1 rack left lol

 

[buffalojim]

I am probably gonna take a bunch and soak them in luke warm water with some Dawn as well. Either way it's still one chip at a time by hand. I just hate cleaning chips but I like whining about it, apparently.

How are you cleaning these so fast? Just water and magic eraser? I'm slow as shit.

Warm water, magic eraser, Palmolive dish soap w/ oxy, and a very sharp pearing knife for the outer ring/hat & canes

I let them soak about 15 to 20 minutes before scrubbing, using the magic eraser super lightly on the faces and more aggressive on the outer edges/rolling edge.

Can post up some photos after work

And the key is the extra strength magic eraser, the original one shreds like feta cheese

I stopped buying the OG's and just get the thicker ones now. The thin ones work ok for really used chips but if any texture is left they shred quickly.

The 25 has purple edge spots, she can’t not like purple.

It's pink, "Hawaii flower"
Just digging that lime green base

After a sale like this is complete, do we ever find out what the quantities of each chip that were sold?

Paring knife? I would be cutting the crap out of myself and the chip…lol. I use a metal dental pic type tool. Helps a lot with the precision hat and cane work and fits almost perfectly in the ring groove. Have to get the metal ones though, not the flimsy plastic handled ones.

This is my disaster station lol ...
I'm very careful with the knife, but I've also always used that. I don't cut the chips, just use it as a cleaning tool

 

[FordPickup92]

Btw that water was 120 chips lol

 

[PokerSenpai]

I've been changing the water out each rack, just feels like the natural stopping point. I'm horribly slow and inefficient at this though. xD.

The beer is the most important tool I see

For anyone that bought the T25 set and hasn't seen my trade thread, I am looking to get all one type of hotstamp since there are 2 versions per denom. Check it out and see if you can help out. It will help make both mine and your set look more uniform and shipping both ways is on me. Thanks!

These 25s clean up so nice. The hooker juice just kinds of melts off these chips.

This man gets it

How are people who bought the cash set using it? Actual denoms or making certain ones sub in fracs etc

Usually @TheChipRoom will publish the total breakdown when he has sold out all the chips.

Took me a long time but I’m done with two racks. These look and feel great!

It’s hard to tell in the pic but weirdly a handful of them seem to be a deeper shade. The middle 1k is dirty, the top chip is the deeper color and the bottom chip is the normal majority color.

 

[PokerSenpai]

I've got to be the only one that still has them in sealed TCR boxes. I've been working my way through cleaning my Tachi set for practice before I give these a go.

This is a good idea. Hot stamps are a whole nother animal

The 25k are easy to clean, the 5k aren't terrible either. I have all the IHC chips done, the T5, and 120 of mixed denoms. The 500 are very easy to clean also

 

[PokerSenpai]

I got some notes from @Gorbash for cleaning hot stamps. I am still a bit nervous. If anyone else has tips/suggestions etc Please let me know. Thanks.

Cover your thumb w the hot stamp and wash around stamp w a white eraser. It won’t be difficult just time consuming.

I'm probably the only crazy one with this set, but I have cleaned hot stamps in my ultrasonic in the past with zero issues so once I have my set squared away and recovered enough from my recent shoulder surgery, that's how I plan to proceed with mine. You guys have WAAAAAAAY more patience than I do cleaning your chips 1 by 1. I am a 100 at a time guy... lol

Did you get fading or stamp removal? What’s your technique? Temp? Solution etc
