You’re so right about red.

When you get them, they’ll be dusty and the edges will look a bit faded. A few drops of oil on a cloth, wipe just the edges of 10-20 stacked chips at a time, then wipe off with a dry cloth. No need to oil the faces, just wipe them off with the dry cloth as well.I have a fresh set of CPC rounders on the way. Wondering if I should oil the new chips.

Does any of this "dustiness" on the edges carry over onto the faces? I would think at least the outer rim where the mold is would benefit from a touch of oil.For those of you who have CPC chips, did you just oil the barrel edges straight away? Or did you rinse off the chips (to get as much chip dust off as possible) prior to oiling? I've seen people swear by both ways.
I oiled one barrel of each denomination (without a water rinse) to see how it would hold up, and after 4 days they still look great. So I'm wondering if the rinse step is necessary.

I'm not a fan of really oily chips, and frankly the faces dont really need it. However, the edges after grinding are very dusty and dry, so th oil really helps there.Is there a specific reason not to put any oil on the faces of new CPCs?

I found it depends on the colour of the chip. Some colours didn't need or benefit from oil on faces, but others needed oil so faces matched edges in 'pop'.Does any of this "dustiness" on the edges carry over onto the faces?

No, the fuchsia chips are roulette THC hot stamps with no location indicator.
Is that butcher block oil that you're using? Beauty chips!
