I bought cucumber flavored e-liquid from EC Blend and...

I use rubbing (Isopropyl) alcohol all the time. It's a very good solvent and evaporates much quicker than water.

I try to stick to the highest percentage I can get so it evaporates even quicker. My grocery store carries 91% which works fine for me. But you can also get it in 50% and 70%.

Just have to be careful to not use it on any components that use any kind of glues, it will dissolve some glues. Though I haven't found anything yet that it's ruined.

Does that rule out clearos & Ego-C's? Also, rinse w/hot water afterwards? Sorry to be a pain, it would be great to finally find something that works.

I've used it on Ego's, clearos, cartos, and tanks. After soaking I usually just let them air dry. If I'm in a hurry I use a can of compressed air to blow dry.

Once completely evaporated it leaves no residue. In 91% aclohol, the other 9% is just water. I just make sure to do a good dry burn on things like atomizers or the clearos before using.

To my knowledge Nothings been ruined by it yet. I've only been vaping a few months so if by chance I've shortened the life span of anything, I wouldn't know. But I have also used it in the past to clean sensitive electronics when other solvents weren't available.

There's vids on youtube that show cleaning e-cigs with isopropyl alcohol as well.

Great news....I've got some clearos & a ton of ego-c attys that I'm ready to pitch (get nothing but a burnt taste regardless of how clean I think they are) & some 70% isopropyl in the house - wish me luck. A huge THANK YOU to you for your time & trouble...& I'll also check the vids on youtube...thanks again.

Burnt taste may end up not being a cleaning issue, but it can't hurt.

I cannot handle eating cucumber. It gives me the worst indigestion and causes me to belch for days afterward.
The idea of vaping it freaks me out quite a bit. I picture myself getting indigestion/belching from vaping it. *shudder*
I do adore Cucumber Melon body products, tho.

Cucumber e-Juice eh? I am a noob and still marvelling over all the flavors out there, Bacon, pepperoni Pizza, seen those, however, natural veggie flavors ? May I ask if it was obtained online ,and from what site? If its really cucumber, it will get its own tank. I use dehydrated alcohol, which I get from a lab supply company to soak my parts. dehydrated as in 100% ethyl alcohol, quite the degreaser and general cleaner. soaked overnight and agitated, then a few hours drying and not a hint of anything unwanted. Good luck, I hope you have success getting rid of that taste.

Not sure about the state you live in but in OKlahoma we can buy what is called Everclear, 190proof. I've used it with success to get rid of the watermelon taste in my atty.
