I hope your hands will still be in shape to hold cards after this!
Here is my post on the Poor Man’s version of the fabled ultrasonic -- I use a dollar-store or WalMart salad spinner and the “fake” (Lundmark) TSP with hot water. The spinner can usually handle 100+ chips at a time; in about 20 minutes I could do five batches of 100:

This was originally a stopgap measure before buying an ultrasonic, but it was successful enough that I never actually got the machine.

I made a jog out of some scrap wood and an old cutting board so they don't move around whole scrubbing. Then I use a nail brush to scrub the faces of the chips

Wow, this thread is super helpful... going to be cleaning some chips, some hotstamps - some not - and this thread answered questions I didn't even know I had!
Just be careful to not leave any hotstamps in for more than 1.5-2 minutes, the TSP/non-TSP cleaners will soften the foil and the mixing and bumping of the chips will start to chip it away

To clarify this was with an ultra (sorry!), but I’d talk to @David O and others about their experiences without hotstamps.Thank you for the extra hotstamp advice! I am definitely most nervous about effectively cleaning the hotstamps while making sure they don't get damaged.
I have never had a problem cleaning hot stamp chips with metasilicate detergent in an ultrasonic cleaner. I have not come across this phenomenon of foil damage from the chemicals or the chip on chip contact during agitation.
