Alcohol

[Raynman]

But what do you use on your Reo??? I use the first drops out of the still PGA all the way.

As a proud member of AA, I avoid alcohol products like the plague.

How do you get any condensed residue out of the inside of the drip tip? And what are the best ways to unscrew stuck parts? Thanks!

I also use a twist of paper towel, but a pipe cleaner is good too then just cut off the tip you used of it.

I would not use isopropyl either for other than contacts, battery.......but cheap high concetrate vodka or PGA as others have said. But I don't have either of those atm. Distilled white vinegar is great, and a disinfectant. A soak in baking soda water is good too like someone else said.

Thanks! I have soaked my tanks in the white vinegar so that's good to know. No pipe cleaners on hand, I'll have to try the paper towel method.

Isopropyl alcohol 91%
Just make sure to let it totally evaporate before vaping
Its no fun to vape

I've been using the same but 99% for decades on my electronics and pcs. Great for cleaning contacts. It's what you want to clean your gold contacts on your reo and the 510 with a q-tip soaked in it. Drys in seconds and leaves no residue if you can find the 99% version which I did not last time I bought a bottle.. 91% was the highest they had.

Found in drug stores and grocery stores in the pharmacy.

Lasts a long time.. only need to dab it on a napkin or qtip To apply.

Also works great with cleaning all the cutouts on the sl mods hehe.

I use interdental brushes on all my drip tips, atomizers, and my Reos they are small enough to get into tiny spaces and have a handle. I also like to clean my gear with toothpaste plain Colgate works the best it's gentle enough that it doesn't scratch up my gear.

I just wash everything in the sink with dish washing soap, a brush, and the water as hot as I can stand it. Then I (sometimes) clean the contacts with rubing alcohol and coat them with noalox.

I use PGA, Vodka or moonshine. Whichever I have at the moment. I have also used isopropyl in a pinch, just make sure it dries out well before use

As a former Winchester, that moonshine is mighty good. But I use a dab for the mod and a shot or two for me. A friend just bought a new radiator and, man, it's good stuff.

Vodka and Q-Tips. Remarkably effective.

I cringe every time I read of people using vodka, moonshine or any other consumable form of alcohol. Don't you people know that using booze as a cleaning agent is pure, plain and simple alcohol abuse!

Booze was created for enjoyment and to keep people like me from ruling the universe.

Effective but simple.....soap & water
