Every now and then my tank will get a little leaky. Like today I didn't notice it had tipped over and I got juice all over haha. Anyway, I always like to have a nice clean tank. Even if my wick and coil are still good, I'll vape all the juice out and take it apart and rinse the tank and stuff. Make sure everything is nice and tight. Do you guys do this?? Or just when you change coils and wick??
How often do you guys clean your tanks??

I clean my tanks when I feel they need it. Maybe once a month or longer. I will use a toothbrush and get the connections scrubbed and let them soak in soapy water, then soak them in vodka.
I do that too sometimes if I'm in a rush, but I'm a bit OCD about them being sterile. I don't trust tap water.
When I change the wicking and/or the coil which is on my sub-ohm tanks about once a week, my MTL Kayfuns and such as I run unflavored in them it is about once a month on a wicking change or coil rebuild with those. If the liquid that was in a tank was foul tasting from the first hit, instant tear down and cleaning with a final soaking in everclear and rinse with distilled water.
Usuauly every time I rewick. If I change flavor they get soap if not they get rinsed with hot water then blown dry with compressed air. Clean my 510 on my mods once every week to.
Never do a specialized cleaning because I basically rinse and wipe every time I rewick.

I assume the 50% pg in mine is doing the disinfecting part. Still, I may wash mine in a container in the sink (keeps all small parts together, easier to find clear floating gaskets) and put a dollop of alcohol in it.
I vape unflavored and I'm a Guy, so that doesn't actually happen often. Shhh

the two RDA's i am currently using get taking apart and rinsed under warm/hot water whenever i do a dry burn or recoil (at least once a week).
**looking down in shame** i have been slacking in this area however, i currently have 7 various tanks and i think like 4-5 rda's that all have various amounts of ejuices in them that have been sitting in cups or on a mod waiting to be taking apart and cleaned anywhere from 1-3mths now. has made switching between multiple flavors during the day not a regular thing lately thats for sure!!

About every other week they get a cheap vodka bath and then rinse in hot water before air drying
I wash out my tank about every two refills and start over with a fresh clean tank. I buy flavoring from halo because they are very well known for testing their eliquids so once my wick gets flavored i am good to go for about two months without adding flavoring or changing out my coils. Just what works for me. Flavor your wick and it will treat you well
Any time I take a tank apart (rewick, now coil) it will get a hot water rinse. Once a monthish they get a good cleaning.
Tanks? Almost never. Clean my tips inside and out almost every time I fill. Clean paper towel, napkin, even TP if I'm feeling lazy
With a tiny bit of rubbing alcohol... Also the connection to the battery, both sides with a Q-Tip. Only time I clean a tank is when I am experimenting with flavors which turned out nasty, or make a mistake and fill with the wrong base. Mostly a 100% PG stealth vaper but do play with 50-50 when I'm alone.

I use my tongue, if that doesn't clean it then hot water and into the CM ultrasonic [emoji1]Tanks? Almost never. Clean my tips inside and out almost every time I fill. Clean paper towel, napkin, even TP if I'm feeling lazy

Dish soap is fine, just rinse in hot water real well. People use a lot of different things. Heck, if I'm cleaning in my brewery I'll use PBW to clean my tanks while I'm using it in the brewery.
I give mine a quick rinse whenever I change wicks/coils which is on average every 2 weeks.
