Anyone know of a bits cleaning service?

I just moved to a new place, and after getting things settled made a startling discovery - I have so many things to be cleaned that it's horrifying. NIB kits for GK, Tau, IG, Cities of death stuff, the list goes on and on. So I was just curious if anyone out there knows of a place the does bitz/ kit cleaning. I know that many painting services such as Blue Table Painting will clean and assemble your kits as part of their painting process, but didn't know if anyone out there deals with just the bitz side.

You can probably contact a painting services company and ask them not to paint your models.

Opt for the lowest-quality painting option, and in your description, state you don't want them painted. They may even give you a discount.

Wait. You need to wash the sprues?

Yes, for best results.
Sprue (particularly resin) has mould release compound on it, which can cause paint to flake off.
Although in this case I believe the OP means cleaning up mould lines.

If the thought of something makes me giggle for longer than 15 seconds, I am to assume that I am not allowed to do it.
