I wiped it with a wet towel and it didn't work well

I washed and oiled my Royals, which helped a little. Overtime the residue will go away, or so I’ve been told.

I gave myself tennis elbow cleaning them. Best thing is a quick rinse and then oiling. They really look fantastic after.

Many here debate about the "compression oiling" claims in this thread, but using a damp cloth (with pressure) to pre-clean them, and then applying (a LITTLE bit of) oil using a lightly oiled micro-fibre cloth and some pressure, then allowing them to dry, has made a HUGE difference to my Royals.

Again, some will tell you that oiling China Clays is a waste of time, or only to oil the rolling edge, but from my experience, giving the faces a light oiling, and then re-oiling the rolling edges a week or so later will make a world of difference.

Good luck!

I agree; oiling the faces of the Royals made a huge difference. They are forgiving on over oiling too since they're cheap China Clays and they drink it up. I absolutely over oiled mine (like by 50x) and they drank it up over time. They're a great candidate to learn how to oil correctly (2 drops / barrel).

But you gotta get that dust off first. I'd recommend a quick soapy rinse. I used damp rags and paid for it with elbow pain for months.

LOL - for me it was thumbs and wrist (plus blisters on a couple of fingers). But that was for 1700 chips, and the end result was worth it.

I used about 2-3 gallons of water in a bucket with less than a capful of oil mixed in. Used an old pasta strainer and did about a barrel at a time. A few quick in and out dunks in the water/oil mix. Laid them out on towels overnight, flipped the next night. Night 3 a quick wipe with a cloth to get any excess off and a quick wipe of the edges. Look so much better.

I know that I"m late to the game, but I was wondering what type of clays are these? Were they produced by ASM/CPC?

They are not actually compressed clay chips. They are injunction molded chips.

Commonly referred to as "China Clay", we never learn the name of the manufacturer, based somewhere in China. They exist as a cross between clay chips and cheap plastic chips.

If you are interested, I would always recommend getting samples before buying a full set. They are much better than cheap plastic chips, but nowhere near as nice as ASM/CPC.
