I have a tip from svoemesto (who here doesn't!)
I took delivery of a Nite DLC two weeks ago which I'm thoroughly enjoying but hit a small snag. I couldn't unscrew the tip insert to clean the gunk from the join. I tried the usual brute force, alcohol, ultrasonic bath, I even stuck it in the freezer hoping the metal would contract, all with no avail. I e-mailed svoemesto and quickly got a reply with the solution.
"You could put the driptip in a bath with hot water and soap and then try to seperate the two after 5 minutes using rubber gloves."
Success - and once more I'm a happy chappie.
