What do you guys think about how apachepokerchips.com recommends to oil your chips? They say to put 2 tablespoons of mineral oil in a pot of warm water and soak a bunch of them for 30 seconds then towel dry them.
Quite a few people have used the oil and water trick to oil lots of chips quickly with success, so I'm not understanding why you think it's not good. Not my preferred method but it works as far as i know. If you don't want to use it then don't use it.I have, the information I've gathered is that this recommendation is not good. I'm wondering why they recommend it if it's not a good suggestion
My biggest concern is that the water will destroy the inlays after submerging themQuite a few people have used the oil and water trick to oil lots of chips quickly with success, so I'm not understanding why you think it's not good.

There's also differing opinions on whether or not to oil at all.

These are China clay, but I think the inlays are more of a plastic material so perhaps warm water would be ok.Are these China Clay or Paulson.
Many of us clean chips by submerging them in water, whether it be hand cleaning or ultrasonic cleaning and most don't have a problem. But also as stated if water will hurt the inlay I'm pretty sure oil will too
I think for China Clays....IF........you want to oil them I would just put them in racks and very lightly oil the edges. AND make sure all of the labels are firmly attached BEFORE doing so. You very well may run into the problem of getting oil and/or water under the labels.....which are diffent than inlays, which are pressed into the chipThese are China clay, but I think the inlays are more of a plastic material so perhaps warm water would be ok.

China clays don't have inlays. They are adhesive-backed vinyl printed labels with a protective plastic laminate covering.These are China clay, but I think the inlays are more of a plastic material so perhaps warm water would be ok.
