okay so my 510's atty has gotten to the point where i have to wait about 2 mins between each drag because it gets a bad taste so i figure cleaning it may help, i dont want to use any booze( i dont have any either) ha. i would like to try boiling it with just plain water, i can use distilled water, because thats what i drink ( and i have it!) i cant find a link to show me or tell me what exactly to do. any sugestions? oh and after i dry it out how do i prime it? shoul di use regular juice? or should i use some PG or VG? and should i just drop some on there or soak it like the factory does ( haha) thanks everyone

Take the cart off and hold down your button for 5 seconds without dragging on it. (I don't know what to tell ya if your battery is an automatic). After 5 seconds, blow on it to cool it down, once it's cooled down, repeat this process until the atty is giving off a red glow. This should burn off all the gunk on there.

Apply some juice, wait a minute or so, then vape.

rinse in warm water place in small glass cover with lemon juice soak from 1hr to overnight rinse in warm water let dry or do a 3 sec dry burn easy waiting inbetween , you don't want to burn them up, 1 drop to prime add cart, or drip and good to go. mine are doing great and i don't over clean them. leave them alone for as long as they are doing ther job just my opinion:)

All great ideas! I have found that the dry burn for five seconds works well. I also wrap tissue around the atomizer and blow out all the excess fluid while pushing the button for 5 to 8 seconds. Repeat as necessary....

I sometime try and rinse and soak but only as a last resort.

Now I have to try it with the Lemond juice. Sounds like a good idea!

thanks for all the great idea, what i did was put very hot distilled water (nuked) in my jewelry cleaner (brand new, no jewelry cleaner in it) and left it on for 10 mins, its one of those "ultra sonic" one... to put it bluntly - it vibrates the water... haha. i will try the dry burn once its dries overnight too. but i wanted to get some of the old flavors. thanks for all the tips :) great info from all of you :)
