looking a little oily as I am following a method where they cure for 48 hours with oil on them. Updates to come. Remember, if it was easy, everyone would do it!

Is oiling Majestics a thing?

taking care of your things regardless of what they are is more of an adult thing you may not grasp just yet

Well, to be fair, ruining your shit by following folk remedies is an adult thing too
Wasting your time doing useless stuff with your things is also an adult thing

!! *Update* !! all the chips are ruined. every label fell off, then the spontaneously combusted. I now am deaf too as a result. god was this a bad idea
Cure in oil? I don't understand what's curing. You've got way too much on there and the labels are at risk. I'd wipe off as much as you can asap. A very small amount of oil can bring out colors that fade with some cleaning methods. Too much just makes a mess and can ruin labels and inlays.
This sounds easy. And if we’ve learned anything it’s
Watching for Wednesday update…
Good luck

Those almost look like they've been submerged.

I oiled a rack of Paulson chips yesterday… All it took was half a cap of mineral oil in small sink of warm water.
I dropped each chip in individually, then randomly raised and lowered handfuls of chips several times so they passed through the surface. They were plenty oiled this way.
If I were doing more I’d drag out my basket from a salad spinner but this was fine in a pinch.
No need to sit for 24 hours.
I dried them on towels immediately, let them air out 10 minutes on each side, then hand-rubbed them. They were ready to rack within a half-hour, but I like to give them all a bunch of shuffles in batches of 8 on an absorbent surface to catch any unseen excess.
The color is richer but they are not greasy this way.

I’ve never heard of this method. It sounds like a pretty bad idea.

What a jackass thing to say to experienced chippers who know that you’ve over oiled your chips merely by looking at them
Yeah. Just based on the initial post, I wondered if possibly this was just a big joke. Then when he went on the offensive, I thought it was even more likely that it was some kind of big troll. But I feel bad if this is actually some guy who got some bad advice and now he’s just getting all defensive about it instead of actually learning something.

If OP had somehow ruined VG+ condition THCs, I’d feel bad.

Update. For the process, I will admit it was my fault I did not mention this was a water/mineral oil mix, not a straight bucket of oil as everyone though. No loose labels, satin finish to the touch, and deep colors. a big thanks to @Taghkanic for leaving a post with actually helpful insight and to everyone else for their...uhhh...support.
Cheers everyone.
Cheers everyone.

I’m a proponent of the water method, yes. But you barely need any mineral oil with the that method. That was way too much.
Oily water ftw
