How do you clean out Mint Drop bottles?

[jiveman]

Hey, I washed out a tiny mint drop bottle for over an hour with water, and let it soak for a bit, but when I put my liquid in there I noticed it still smelled like mint, and the vaping experience was hurting my chest.

How do you get all of the mint flavoring and smell out of those little things?

Try using baking soda dissolved into hot water and and let that soak for a while or you could add a little peroxide to your hot water and see if that helps I know baking soda worked for cleaning the smoke smell out of my carpet and curtains it might help minty bottles. It helps with dog smell too.

Dish soap is usually my go-to solution for stubborn flavorings. Might be worth a try.

You could also go to the dollar store or dollar tree and look in the candy area. They had 3 pks of fruit flavored liquid candy in tiny squeeze bottles They were on a sheet of cardboard.

Thanks guys. I'll give dish soap a go and then pick up some baking soda if that fails. My lungs appreciate your answers, that was painful to vape lol

Hi jiveRock,

I made a post about the bottles and what I did just a few days ago. Check it out:

You can boil them or just rinse ALL PARTS, REALLY WELL under hot water and use vodka for a final rinse. Make sure to rinse the dropper inserts and caps. Make "Absolut"ely sure to do the vodka rinse at the end. Mine were clean after that; no minty smell and I didn't have to use dish soap. Talk about painful vaping...

Okay great idea. I'll pick up some vodka. My lungs still haven't recovered from whatever was left in those bottles! rough rough stuff.

The best part is if using the vodka to clean with doesn't work, you can always drink what's left in the bottle!
