    Default Scouring Pads???

    Ok so first off let me state I have tried the PTB mod, the straw mod, etc.. Has anyone esle out there tried a scouring pad? The one i use is from work so there is no brand name, its just your basic green, no chemical scouring pad. Let me say it works great!!!! I have tried this in a Blu atty and a 510 atty and I cannot get similiar results with any other mods. It really cost effective too, one pad would last basically 100 mods which is one of my problems with the PTB.
    All I did was cut out a peice that seemed like it would fit and stuff it in. No straws, no frills, nothing fancy. I seems like the scouring pad works well because its not absorbant at all, so it transfers the liquid with no promblems. It works so well on my blu that I no longer need to dip the atty which is great for convience and is basically the only other way to get a good hit from the blu. Also I have not noticed any problems yet with leaking.
    Let me know if there is someone out there that already tried this. If not try it, and give me your thoughts?

    could you perhaps post a couple of good clear pictures of the scouring pad so we can see the density etc?

    Thanks

    This is not my picture but its the same as what we get from the supplier of the company i work for.

    You can find it on google, just type in heavy duty green scouring pad.

    The one I am actually using is about twice as think, but is exactly the same material as this. We have both at work. But you could fold this over for a larger atty, and get the same results.

    thank you. I think I have some of those layingaround. I wonder though, if the heat releases anything toxic or if the material reacts with the juice or nicotine.

    Tried to figure out what material that would be. Only thing I could find was "Synthetic Fiber", or possible a nylon material. I would think it would be somewhat safe because it is used for cleaning food items. But when you heat it who know? I will check more on that and possible the manufacturing process to get more info.

    They are Scothbrite pads. I think 3M make them.

    The ones I use are not scotch brite brand. It is actually from the kay chemical supply company. But I think scotch brite would be the same thing.
