Best part is that it only cost less than $200 for the set, in some poker night that is just 1 winning hand pot

Excited to try this out on my new chips, I still need to gather all the stuff to make it happen. My only concern is doing this safely, does anyone have videos of themselves or others following this process correctly?
Cleaned and oiled the latest batch. Recently sold 950 of these, and recently acquired about 1330 of them. Despite my latest intentions, my collection is determined to keep growing!
received my us today. can someone confirmthatwhen we refer to TSP we mean TSP concentrate like this :

I need to try my ultrasonic just scared I will fuck somethin up lol esp with that TSP stuff hand cleaning cannot take place anymore for me my wrists are hit
This is the one I use. I think the phosphate free type is the recommended.

Holy crap this is so much faster. Finally broke down and bought an ultrasonic for the majestic star chips (I got 1200 chips). I just cleaned them all in an hour and a half. Agitated with a plastic spoon in the metal basket, 2 tablespoons from a $4 box of tsp from home depot, 100 chips per cycle, 1.5 minutes on. I'm sold.
Little fading on 2 of the purple $500 chips.

FYI, I’ve had good luck cleaning the Majestic Star Paulsons with Krud Kutter. I dilute 20:1 into my cleaner, the dirt just boils off in the ultrasonics. I didn’t have Lundmark TSP available locally. Krud Kutter is also sodium metasilicate based.

I use this too. No problems as long as you oil the chips afterwards.

I’ve seen no issues with discoloration. I did oil chips afterwards. Here’s the post-cleaning results.
Did another weekend of cleaning on these Nevada Hotel 5s. Gunk was kind of hard to get off so the salad spinner was ditched and instead I did a batch of 14 chips at a time in the basket and would use a sonicare toothbrush to scrub the chips afterwards with some magic eraser as needed.

I really need to try my ultrasonic cleaner I keep hand cleaning & my hands hurt so bad
You’ll never look back once you do. It helps loosen the hard stuck gunk and gets off some of the easier stuff. Best results are always with a light scrub but the effort needed after a quick ultrasonic is reduced dramatically.

Ultra changes the chips. You need @Ben8257 recipe for soaking. Then there’s almost zero effort cleaning and no fade and no rough chip left after ultra.

I'm not at my home game tonight, otherwise I'd have my own chips. These ones are awful, I'm trying to convince the owner to upgrade
