Ghosted Chuff Cap?

[Evilcon666]

Hey there, so I've got one of those metal chuff caps that I got as a prize from a steep vapors box. Anyways.. I went to go clean it today and noticed its holding the smell of a juice I vaped a while back.. I'm curious is there anyway to soak it to get rid of the smell?

You could put in a dish with a little baking soda and vinegar for about 15 minutes, then rinse it well with very hot water, that should help.

Remove o ring soak in PGA or wash with dishwashing liquid in hot water, rinse well.

Sorry my brain isn't processing right now lol. What's PGA? I'm sure it's something stupid simple but I can't think

Pure Grain Alcohol.

Pure Grain Alcohol.

Lol. I knew it was something simple.

Sadly I don't have access to that at the moment.

What about rubbing alcohol?

I'm guessing he higher percentage the better/ faster it'll work.

I wouldn't use rubbing alcohol. BUt I do use vodka.
I actually keep a bottle of CHEAP vodka around for quick cleaning soak.

If somethings REALLY nasty I might go dish soap and hot water - but that requires a much more thorough rinsing...

I wouldn't use rubbing alcohol. I'd probably try the baking soda & vinegar suggestion, or even just baking soda and water.

This definitely, works a charm on both applications although my go to is the latter [emoji108]

I'll swing by the local kwike mart and get some cheap vodka. This should also work for an atty the next time I wanna give it a good cleaning too right ?

Yeah, do that a fellow work collegue uses a range of bourbons (alcoholic methinks lol) for his rather OTT collection of attys. I suggested it wasnt a great idea but hes been vaping longer than me and i always gracefully respect the methods of the older generation, even if i dont fully agree with them

Interesting. I should think bourbon would leave a sticky residue. Dark, heavy liquor doesn't strike me as a cleaning liquid, but whatever tootles your puff.

I laughed to hard at tootles your puff for some reason lol.

You try telling him that, i would think vodka or ethanol would be the best but he stores hit attys in shot glasses with whiskeys, bourbons and other dark tipples :/

"Tootles your puff" is quote of the day

Isn't rubbing alcohol pretty much grain alcohol? I mean the smell similar sometimes lol.

No. One can drink "pure" grain alcohol, if so inclined, but isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol isn't to be taken internally.

^^^ this is supposed to be a picture of a bottle of Everclear. It shows in the preview, but not in the post. Odd.
