WARNING: clean atomizer/phosphine poisonous gas in Tips and Tricks; I did a test, but visualising weak solutions of flourescent dyes even with a powerful UV lamp wasn't as easy ...

    I did a test, but visualising weak solutions of flourescent dyes
    even with a powerful UV lamp wasn't as easy or sensitive as I had hoped.

    I'm going to switch to testing acid 'rinse effectiveness' by measuring pH
    (I happen to have a proper pH meter & standard buffers)
    which will give much more accuracy & sensitivity.

    Have it mind to rinse-test stong phos.acid for a first go,
    then strongly acidified e-liquid to see if the viscous-ness is a large factor
    (or not).

    Will post results when I get round to it,
    if anyone's particulary interested I could get to it sooner rather than later.

    I am definitely interested in your finding Exo....I do think you may be right that it takes a lot more than we would like to think to clean out any chemicals that might be used to clean a coil.

    I was kinda thinking this was the same stuff in coke. I think I'll just stick to alcohol.

    I'm wondering myself. Exo, it's been a couple of weeks. If you got busy, that's understandable, but I thought it might be worth checking in on the progress of this.

    Please keep us posted.

    Well, Exo said, "gives me something to play with this weekend...." on May 7th....

    There are a couple of weeks in that timeframe! Something tells me that exogenesis has left the building.
