I've hear yes and no! I have 2 older ones I thought I would soak in alcohol for a few hours then ran it under water. The coil was still black so I did a dry burn and all turned white. I havent tried them out so we'll see! Have any of u tried one or the other?

I did it today. rinsed it in water for a little, dried it off, pulled the wick out and screwed it back into the base. Fired it for a little until the coils were bright orange then rewicked. Think I should have rinsed in water again because it taste a little funky
Did you soak in hot water AFTER dryburning? It's necessary to get rid of the burnt taste.
This video explains rebuilding and dryburning an EVOD head, which is basically the same as a protank head:

I usually discard the flavor wicks, but the coiled wick I'll leave in place and AFTER getting all the gunk off with a small brush, dry burn the DAMP wick/coil in 2 - 3 second bursts until the wick is pure white and coil glows bright orange evenly and quickly. Then replace the flavor wicks with 2 pieces of 1 mm silica wick. My coils last for over a month and like you I use them in a rotation.
wanted to try rewicking it with cotton, which so far im not very happy with. whatever, have another ptank and extra coils coming in soon. will also order rebuilding stuff and give it another shot.
Like Glen, I take out the flavor wick to dry burn. But I replace it with a short piece of cotton yarn. It's the perfect diameter for the flavor wick, no leaks, wicks great.
I finally watched it just now and that's a great video. Thanks Teach!
