Anyone having problems with cartomizer stickers?

[x-cessive]

Hi everyone! I have been using Bloog Maxxfusions and love them! 1 problem I'm facing is that because I can refill them, in a few days of active use the lamination over the sticker on the cartomizer starts to peel off! Anyone else seeing this? Is there a best practice to avoid this? Thanks!

My solution is to just pull the sticker off. But then again i don't mind the stainless steel look all that much.

Cool! I tried that today. Feels weird (cool/warm metal), but i'll give it some time. Thanks Java!

How do you get the sticky stuff off? I tried nail polish remover and windex and it is still there

I was having a hard time too. I had some wipes in the house for removing fingerprints on stainless steel appliances. I used used that in combination with a dry paper towel and surprisingly it cleaned up pretty quick!

You could also try alcohol and a Q-tip. I know it usually works on sticker glue left behind. Haven't tried it on a carto though, but I don't see why it would be any different.

Getting rid of the stickers is wonderful. If you heat the cartos up a bit, the glue releases much easier. I just drop hem into a bit of boiling hot water for a bit. I then use rubbing alcohol on a paper towel and a bit of elbow grease to get rid of any glue remaining behind. Also, if you don't like the feel of the metal on your lips, grab a couple of the ubiquitous delrin drip tips. I find them to be very comfortable.

i remove them with dish soap and hot water 50/50 solution, after peeling the sticker off, just keep saturating the glue with the soap and water mix and a rag, pulling it to one end with a tight grip. works for me : )

That sounds great for empty cartomizers, but what about pre-filled cartomizers?

taped the holes on both sides of the carto, then i used adhesive remover, the ones used in the clinic, try getting a drip tip if it feels too hot
