Just stumbled on this site. You need to click on the catalog in pdf format. Thay have an automatic chip cleaner, but hold on to your wallet....it's only $6,150...but it sanitizes as well!
At 2200 chips per hour, it should fulfill almost every chiptalk members' cleaning needs. Now if it would only oil them too.

Gee! I'll need one for upstairs and one for downstairs
Guess I'll just have to get more chips to fully utilize the potentials of this thing

Group buy? We get 60 people to throw in $100+ and then we can all have our chips cleaned whenever we choose. Anyone else can pay to have their chips cleaned.

Seriously though, the Flamingo (LV) has some kind of chip-cleaning machine and it leaves the chips bone-dry. They end up a lighter color than they started. I can post pics later if anyone cares.

I thought gasoline prices were kind of high.
But the Chip Cleaner Solution goes for $65 per gallon!!

I wonder how many chips a gallon would clean. Better be at least 500 chips.

Which probably explains why so many casinos/cardrooms have dirty chips?

That cleaning solution is probably reusable as well isn't it? Just a wild guess that it probably isn't a use once product at that price, or is a concentrated solution that is to be used diluited. And there's probably a generic substitute that is 1/10th the price .

While this portable 20 lb. chip cleaner may be good for desktop use, I've found an industrial-strength chip cleaning machine, which cleans 5000 chips per hour!

New thread for that machine:

I'm surprised casinos don't clean their chips, when I stayed at the Monte Carlo last month the chips in the poker room were disgusting. If you picked up a couple $5 chips 2 or 3 stuck to those, it was the dark funky stuff that must have been a combo of cigarette ash, spilled drink, hand sweat, dead skin cells, brill cream, snot, drool, mayo and other fine casino condiments. You'd think a multi-million dollar joint would have a $6,000 chip cleaning machine. The dealer said that the MGM Mirage group was getting all new chips for the casino, but ut didn't look like they'd ever been cleaned. Some of the $5 chips in the casino were so worn it was incredible, I wish my pharaohs would get worn in a bit quicker.

Did you ever think of an auto parts washer to clean chips could put some kind of cleaner in there and scrub by hand then rinse off the chip with the washer nozzel !

Just go to the local golf course and use their ball washers to clean your chips! They won't mind
