>>>6029383 how to perfectly clean all LEGO elements ever, in batches, in methods that restore them to factory–new condition? In a manner that's not destructive at all in a way that could harm connectivity, such as how laboratory glass is cleaned in acid to dissolve the actual outer molecular layers of glass as part of the process.>>>6029326 nearly cried.Is this autism or OCD?
Easiest way to thoroughly clean something is just stick them into a giant tub full of dish detergent and scrub them down with a brush.
Make sure to sort through them first, because as others have mentioned, lotta weird gross shit is found with them.
Some people just stick them into the washing machine, but if you use warm water, which you should, i can see them denting each other.
