Is the paps 2.5 that much of an improvement from the 2.1? I love my 2.1 and I'll probably never get rid of it (most likely because it was my first non clone mod) but I really don't use it all that much. I use my poldiac and nemesis a lot more.

I could tell u definitively when I know why u use ur Poldi & Nem 'a lot more'?

What's the material of the screen? Acetone can actually dissolve a lot of plastics (and make them look cloudy). I found that out the hard way in Organic when I tried to clean my goggles with it... afterwards I basically had beer goggles (and thus put them right next to the ethanol!). As a chemist I couldn't imagine why 91% isopropyl would do more damage to certain plastics than 99%, seeing as how it's usually just diluted with water.

Not sure what type of plastic it is. The alcohol wash is actually recommended by ProVape and does not affect the warrantee, so I have to assume that whatever the plastic is, it's not anything that would be degraded by alcohol in any dilution.

My thought was that the extra water content may have allowed residue to adhere to the plastic and that a 2nd wash with 99% may do a better job and not leave any residue behind. If the fogging is the result of actual damage to the plastic, I don't think anything short of replacing it would fix it.

I know this probably isn't the best place to post this question, but I'm sure some of you guys and gals have a brushed nemesis or other high end mod, so I thought this might be a good place to start. I have a couple of very minor scratches on my brushed Nemesis and was wondering if anyone has any tips on how to get rid of them. With my polished SS Gus, I used the polishing wheel on my Dremel to get rid of those scratches. Would that work on a brushed SS mod as well?
