I am getting more into the DIY liquids and starting to mix alot of different flavors. Should I buy a whole bunch of new atty's to test new flavors or is there a way to get the flavor off the ones I have.
510 atty's.....

There are a lot of threads on here about the best ways to clean attys. In my opinion, and to be clear, it's only based on my own experience, I wouldn't clean your attys until they start not working very well. It seems like the only ones I've ever burned out were ones that I cleaned, while the ones i just let go seem to last and last. I would actually be curious to see if others have experienced similar results as I have.
So, to answer your question-if it was me, I'd just use a few different attys. I'd probably also look at replacing the cartridge filler when changing flavors. The atomizer can burn off flavoring, but the filler might be more prone to holding the flavor.

Everclear is the best way. Its 190 proof/95% alcohol and will get every last bit of the old taste out. Just fill up a shot glass and soak them in the alcohol for anywhere from 10 minutes to a few hours. Whatever it takes to get the old juice out.
I run water through my attys first in order to keep the alcohol rather clean and untainted with juice so I can reuse it.
If you can't get 190 Proof Everclear look for the 151 proof and if you can't get that use 100 proof Vodka.
Make sure you thouroughly dry them afterward. A lot of people mistake a dead atty for a flooded atty. Canned air works great, followed by a hair dryer or just sitting them cart side down overnight.
I've never ruined an atty this way. Attys are meant to get wet... Dry burns on the other hand can put some strain on an atty but usually won't ruin it.

Thanks for the replies I seen some atty's somewhere for like $3.99 So prob get a few for just testing juice
Me I clean em in Everclear and prime them with VG and Everclear right after the cleaning.
I have had to reprime a secound time when cleaning them out from T.V. Atomic Cinnacide tho.
