Did you ever flip them, or just let them be for a week?
I did not flip them. Just left them for like 10 days or something. Worked great.

Sounds great! So both sides turned out equally good?I did not flip them. Just left them for like 10 days or something. Worked great.
does anyone know if oiling the WTHC chips will spoil the inlay?
Has anyone tried adding mineral oil to a tumbler? I may try that for my brand new paulson Jack Detroits
Nice! What a difference it makes... Can you oil them immediately after cleaning or should they dry first?Insane difference on these PCA 5s. Freshly cleaned vs cleaned then oiled. These things pop now. The unoiled 5s honestly were so faded they could have caused dirty stack issues with the 1s....that bad.

I let mine dry usually half a day but sometimes a full day. Depends on if I'm using the ultrasonic or not. If it's just Dawn and warm water I will start oiling after a half day or so if it's my ultrasonic I usually give them longer.Nice! What a difference it makes...

And it's not organic at all and doesn't get rancid or smelly.I let mine dry usually half a day but sometimes a full day. Depends on if I'm using the ultrasonic or not. If it's just Dawn and warm water I will start oiling after a half day or so if it's my ultrasonic I usually give them longer.
Very little oil....so little oil. I've been using the same microfiber cloth to oil chips for like 6 months or more without adding more oil. That's how little oil.
Can you oil ceramics or Bud Jones chips as well?
I figure the oil would have no "porous" areas to settle in. It's likely it would just run off or the chips would be always stuck togetherNo oil for ceramics or plastics. Only clays.

Standard required procedure for all CCs is to rinse clean, let dry, and then oil (almost unscrupulously, unlike CPCs and used Paulsons)I've got a random question and I've been searching the forum for a while and couldn't find a definitive answer, and this thread seemed like the best option to post in. I have a lot of Dunes CC from Apache and some of the chips are much more slippery than others. My question is does cleaning off the factory dust and/or oiling help to reduce the slip at all? Thanks!
That said, I had some Parkers BJ chips that were quite faded after cleaning. I applied a little oil and they were as good as new.Yup. It'll just be a big ol' mess.

Just wiped on a touch and wiped off.It was just a teensy misting of oil, right?
After having showered them clean and having them dry out, you 've GOT to oil them (this is mandatory for CCs and CPCs as well - not necessarily for used Paulsons, unless the latter are casino-used and ultrasonic-cleaned; for mint Paulsons most people will say don't even touch them ).Thanks. I was hoping that cleaning the layer of factory chalk off of them might somehow improve the slippery factor.
It's not likely the oil will dry if it is on the inlay area, you may need to wipe down with a cloth. The edges should dryFor once in my life I actually followed exact directions and used the technique described in this thread for a new set of milanos. The chips look a million times better. After following the final step, (wiping away the settlement oil with my finger) my only concern is they still feel a little oily. I don’t plan on playing with them for another few weeks so I will continue to let them air dry in the racks and hopefully they will dry up some more. If not, I’m contemplating if I should wipe them down with a dry microfiber cloth because while I like the shine, I don’t want them to be oily enough to make the players hands oily. Will they typically dry out enough on their own?
