e-juice and carto clean possible

[bobdog]

I am curious if I can clean all the e-juice out of a boge carto? I put a flavor in I hate (it's full) and want to get it out and reuse the carto if I can. I hate to throw away a perfectly good and new I might add, carto. Sorry if this has been posted a million times. Thanks.

If I posted this correctly, this video will help with clearing the juice. Then you can boil the carto for a couple of minutes to clear the remaining juice residue.

The one time I used the reverse taryn spin, I didn't get nearly as much juice as he showed in the video, but I did get it cleared and saved the carto. Also, I just boiled the water in a coffee cup and dropped the carto in instead of actually boiling the carto on the stove.

Oh, and blow the water out of the carto, then let it dry for at least 3-4 hours, overnight would probably be better.

I hate watching videos. Blow out as much as you can. Do you have a syringe? If so, you can syringe a lot of the liquid out. It's really hard to get a taste out of a carto. If you do have a syringe, try forcing very hot distilled water through it, followed by vodka. Blow out as much as you can and dry overnight. It doesn't work for older cartos for me, but haven't tried it on a new one.

Don't put an untested flavors in cartos. Use a sealed manual battery, an atomizer and a drip tip to test juices. if you have a KR808D-1 manual use a DSE901 atomizer and drip tip. Slim ecigs should only use standard resistance 2.5 to 3 ohms.

You can buy a carto/atty cleaning kit at Smoktek.com but drying cartos completely can be an issue - you may need to bake cartos in a slow oven 175F for hours. And when it's dry it may not anywhere near as good as new. And forget about cleaning well-used cartos because you will not get the baked on juice off the coil.

Never had much luck cleaning cartos. They taste nasty after, and don't draw very well. I just toss them.

Just for the heck of it, I'm going to try and clean it. I'll try several ways that have been suggested and see what happens. Then when they don't work I'll toss it and move on. The lesson learned here is to NOT use a carto to taste flavors. Use an atty and drip tip, though I'm not sure how to drip through that small hole. LOL. Thanks for the help.

I remove drip tip for dripping, just hate juice in my mouth.

I don't like to drip so I use clearomizers to test juice. They can be washed out. Attys aren't all that cheap.
