I think what happened I sprayed the lanolin and alcohol and let it sit a couple weeks. This was once fired and pretty tarnished. I just dry mine in the oven. Let oven get up to 250. Put cases on a paper towel on a cookie sheet put in oven and turn off. 5lbs of the chips are under 25 dolllars. Cheap enough to try and report back.
