Thoughts on Royal poker chip from Apache (4 Viewers)

What type of oil is normal to use?
Mineral.

Had my Royals now for quite awhile. Just added two racks that came this morning to stretch my original cash set. Relabeling right now.

They don’t smell (really never did) and are one of my crews favorite sets.

I’ll lightly edge oil later a barrel at a time.

In the US, we call it mineral oil or baby oil. I believe it goes by a different name in Europe. Either way it's some sort of neutral, unscented oil typically used as a laxative. @Coyote knows what it's called in the EU.
It's called parafin oil in Europe, and it's a laxative.
If, on our side of the pond, you go to a Pharmacist and ask for a huge bottle, the poor man or woman will be astonished at how you may have survived without shitting for years. :)
 
how do people like royals compared to Tina's chips? Was looking to compare it to the 43 mm greek or web mold.

To me the Tina’s feel lighter and clink more. I’m told they are more like traditional chips. I’ve have some Paulson and cpc samples in the mail. Right now my front runner is the Royal. I also have some pharaohs coming to compare them to the Paulson and the majestics. Followed the samples samples samples advice and I’m glad I did. Gonna use the Royals for a T25 set. Not sure on the cash set yet. Most of the sets I want, the fantasy sets, cost more than my first car. And that’s with inflation.
 
The Royals are the best of the China clays, in my opinion. I had a set of Majestic, but, quickly got rid of them. The smell was pretty bad, and, they were slippery, to me. The Royals are neither of these. They are a bit more slippery than Paulsons, CPC, etc, but, there is a card room I play at regularly that uses them, and, I love them.
 
I just put a set for sale in the classifieds.... FYI. I have a cash set and tournament set - selling the tournament set.
