    Benn web searching for info for the new casinoshop.ie site and came across this - people have asked before how to clean plastic cards, so here is the info!

    Cleaning Plastic Playing Cards
    Your cards will last longer if you keep them clean.
    To wash your cards, use cold water, mild neutral soap and a soft cloth. Do not use hot water.
    Clean only a few cards at a time.
    Rub very lightly on both sides of the card and rinse quickly.
    Dry thoroughly at once using a clean, soft cloth.
    Spread your washed cards on a table and allow up to one hour on each side to dry. Avoid direct sunshine or artificial heating elements.
    Occasionally wipe your plastic cards with a damp cloth and let dry thoroughly.
    Never use detergent or alkaline soap.
    Never wash cards in a washing machine.
    Never put cards away damp, either from washing or perspiration.
    Never store cards where they will be exposed to sunshine or any other source of heat.
    Play on a clean felt table. Playing on poor quality or dirty surfaces will result in scratches which will allow dirt to accumulate on the cards.

    I always put them in the washing machine; cold wool wash with no powder and half spin. Then I dry them by laying them on a poker cloth, turning them after half a day or so. Works like a charm. * They last like forever this way. (read: at least fifty/50 times longer than ordinary plastic coated cards)

    * = 100% plastic cards only; using Copag cards; only 12 euro at Gamers Realm / Galway.
