I'll remember that if I ever decide to play baseball using a Paulson chip in lieu of a glove .

The only time that I had heard of oiling a chip before coming here was from Dennis at TR King when he suggested it as a means of removing the haze on the Casbah Club chips (doesn't work, just live with it). Can't say as I've ever heard of oiling chips for any other purpose other than that if may make it easier for some people to shuffle.
