U will need silica wick and 32a kenthal wire. Go YouTube or google around they do teach u rewicking same as vivi nova rewick. Btw the two items are needed. Slowly twist I am sure u will be able to get it off. Some patients is needed.

hi thank you.. i watched a video i'll be getting them asap once i can twist it open. i stopped trying.
will try again later.
lol handpain trying to open it. :mad:

edit: tried using rubber band and twist also, still not working. maybe i should get a new different one

To get it unbinded, try putting it in the freezer. Not too long in case you crack your tank. You slowly twist until SG approve Vaping also no use. And using too much strength may result in breaking your tank.
It's freezer or hot water. Take your pick.

1) Try leaving the top portion (drip tip portion) in a bowl of ice. You just want the metal to contract and hence making it easier to remove.
OR
2) Using a syringe, fill the clearo from the bottom i.e centre post (slowly hor)with vg or pg. Just fill enough so that when it's upside down, the vg or pg is above the threads. Hopefully some vg will seep into the threads after some time and act as lubricant. I've never tried this, but just an idea.

Do give up bro! keep on trying... tons of tutorial vids on youtube

Ha have! Message is very different from what you meant. Check first before posting. Lol.

S2pid, it sounds as if you only have one clearo. [*removed]. They are not the best delivery systems, in fact, they suck. But I keep them as backups for the backups for the backups for the backups for the.........

issit maybe i just need replacement coil heads instead for my vcore 2? is there such thing? so i dont have to try rewick myself or something? havent vape.. i smoke a little just now :cry: :cry: :cry:
i dont think i can rewick on my own..broke some wick :x haha

Well u can get replacements but that will mean another few days unless someone here can help you in an hour's time which is hardly possible. Since u have the items why not try your hand at rewicking? Very simple, put your wick in line with a paperclip, and coil tightly. after coiling, slip out the paperclip and u are almost there.

"It never hurts to try till you succeed, but it hurts much more if you know that you actually may be able to do it but just gave up at the very last moment."
