Cotton wicks

[Bunnyboy]

Where do i find those 100% cotton wicks locally? Is there some place or shop you guys recommend?

Hey bunny, most of the candle shops here only bring in pre-primed wicks. Otherwise you can check spotlight at plaza sing. They've got cotton and cotton/ bamboo fibre yarns made to ozzy standards.

please don't tell me you are going to use cotton wicks for your coils...
those cotton wick will just burn up leaving you to vape ashes....>.>
only 3 types of wicks to use.
Silica, fibreglass or nextel which nextel is not available to us.
OR
stainless steel mesh oxidised as wicks.

I use sterile gauze from pharmacy, keep it wet and it vapes well.

I have been using %100 cotton yarn wicks almost exclusively for a month or so now. they do not burn up and the flavor is awesome.

Ya. Have to keep it wet... My point is be cautious unless u know what u r dealing with. And there r many newbies here who doesnt know which i would reccomend them to just stick with foolproof stuff.

I am using cotton yarn as well. Vapes pretty well. haven't burnt anything yet. Just change it out if it happens... No big deal.

Go down to Spotlight at Plaza Sing. They sell lots of Angmoh stuff so you can be a little more assured of the quality if like me a little kiasi. Buy the white cotton or cotton/ bamboo yarn at the knitting department. Tie some up into a bunch and soak into boiling water. Hang dry. Braid like 6 pieces together because they are really thin.

When putting into carto, IMHO, it doesn't really matter if the wicks are bound together or loose in strands, but I am using ody and pen so I might be wrong with clearos.

Anyways it is not expensive and a few dollars of yarn is about a lifetime worth of wicks. Well maybe at least a few years worth...
