Best way to clean hot stamped chips?

[chipandachair]

Is it OK to use Diamond cleaner on these? I know TSP will clean these, but I don't know if it will take off the hot stamp too.

just cleaned about 300 Paulsons and 100 ASMs with hotstamps, used Resolve carpet cleaner, no damage what so ever.

TSP eats hotstamps. Avoid.

^^^^Agreed. Resolve Triple Action Carpet Cleaner will do the trick.

Ultra Palmolive Oxy Plus dish soap, warm water, a little soak, disposable electric toothbrush, soft bristles (avoiding hot stamp area). Worked like a charm on dirty chips, but they weren't disgustingly filthy chips.

The first thing that you must understand when it comes to cleaning poker chips is that certain types are more prone to accumulating dirt, and grime than other types. The ingredients in poker chips play a large role in this. Poker chips that are composed of clay, for instance, are much more likely to accumulate debris and even fade as time progresses. However, chips that are created by implementing the use of ceramic are less likely to accrue various types of debris. If you are interested in cleaning your gaming chips for the purpose and intent of maintaining them, learn what they are composed of first.
Take a small cup and add one half of a teaspoon of the detergent to warm water. Make sure that you mix the water and the detergent well.
Take a damp cloth to clean this area. Otherwise, water and soap may seep inside the inlay. It's more than enough and you should first look the type pf the chips that you are going to clean up.
