SOLD Black Friday Sale (4 Viewers)

[FlopTheNuts]

Just opened and counted….. I ordered 5 extra of each denom and there were plenty more freebies to go around in the $1’s and $5’s as you can see…. Four more on the arm in the $25’s and somehow I was short a $100 but I don’t even care! They’re in much better shape than I expected tbh. None of mine have the horrific rack checks I see in this thread….. I was even able to sort out a full rack of minty $5’s (BACC room labels) and a full rack of vg $5’s outta the lot. I will admit the rest are tires but that just means easier to shuffle! They all need some cleaning but these do look fuckin sweet!

PS….. New favorite hundo!

Just a heads up to anyone cleaning the Majestic Star 500's in an ultrasonic cleaner to proceed with caution as they easily become discolored after a few minutes. I ruined a few of them.

I have an extra electric toothbrush head and was planning on using that with some dawn power wash on any really bad ones. Any potential issues with that?

I can't make a "wanted" ad as a vendor I guess. So I guess I'll try here. I love the look of those 100s. I was only able to buy 60x of them on Friday. I'd be interested in more. 20x more up to a rack possibly. Willing to pay a little more than CR original pricing. If you ordered too much, or don't like them in person, maybe I can take them off your hands.

Here are some pics of the ultrasonic discoloration. From left to right: Unwashed, Washed and discolored, Washed and not discolored. Wash times were pretty much the same, only ruined 20 out of 100.

Are you sure they are ruined? Often times after a wash oiling is necessary to bring them back.

 

[Josh Kifer]

I just meant to indicate that the thread was severely derailed. Didn't realize 80 people died in that crash...

Gonna go change the gif now.

*Slow clap*

Were they washed in TSP or in Simple Green? Supposedly Simple Green is less likely to discolor them.

TSP. I will try to oil them and see if they come back.

 

[grantc54]

TSP. I will try to oil them and see if they come back.

I would also give them a swipe of magic eraser. How long did you have them in and at what temp?

Yeah it looks like they are ruined. Here are a few of the discolored chips after a heavy oiling. It helps a little, but still ruined IMO.

 

[cpiaaq]

Woh, looks like some burning around the metal flakes? or is that just crud.

I did some for around 2.5 minutes and some for 3.5 minutes, but I am not sure which ones were discolored. I assume it was the longer wash. Temp was somewhere between 45 - 47 c.

 

[cvanem]

I am not sure. I just looked at again and my best guess is metal flakes that are no longer shiny. None of the crud looked like that from what I remember.

It’s either Herpes or Covid

A natural bristle nail brush is great. Soak them for a few minutes, then place one in the palm of your hand and scrub in a few different directions. Flip, repeat, rinse, dry.
The natural bristles are better because they're thinner than a plastic brush. Gets into those hats and canes better.
I've found a toothbrush is just too small to get it done with any speed (and creates hand cramps too).
It still takes a while with a nail brush, though.

So I paint miniatures for gaming and I have this handy citadel mini holder... It works extremely well at holding a chip

Rack check marks can be carefully removed with a SOS pad. Sounds slightly crazy but it works well. Be gentle. May help on those ruined 500s as well.

I don't see many people not wanting the 100s they are straight Fire in person pics don;t do them justice regret not getting more now also the 500s are very nice as well

I bought a Ultrasonic like 2 months ago and still have not used it

I am dumb when it comes to this type of stuff lol

I cannot hand clean anymore my wrists are hit Cleveland's and more Jacks and Majestic Stars might be hitting the chopping blocks here soon

 

[PhillyB]

Just a tip for everyone.

Standard Dremel at low speed or high whatever you find to your liking and these
Jewellers brush head for creases

For surface, Dremel Versa

It helps you clean through really dirty or rack check chips like nada after nice soak of oxy(I use max force but whatever your cleaner is it’s fine), my time is precious. Now back to watching tv, eating potato chips off my belly and playing with my chest hair.

Ugh. I wonder if you can lightly sand them back to life.

Did you dump the detergent directly on these without dissolving it in the water? It looks like stuff sat on them and ate the edges.

 

[Ben8257]

Hand clean 100% of the time!

Also TSP is very abrasive, we switched to Oxi Crystal's years ago and oxi laundry detergent!

After hand scrubbing it does dry them out but oil brings them right back! Don't even own any TSP anymore, throw that stuff out.

Just dried @FordPickup92 sample set and they look great!

Any one with "extra $1s and $5s with the other inlays, and the other colored $1... we would love to build a full sample set.

I said the 25,100,500 were dark but I see it needs the $1s and $5s with it. They look great cleaned

This looks like a great option for people who hand clean their chips. Looks like it’s around fifteen bucks on Amazon.
