One thing I do for all of my 306 atty's before I use them is to first soak them for about 20 Minutes in Vodka then I put a drip tip on them and use a standard medicine dropper syringe to force really really hot water through them to wash them out really well. Then I blow through the drip tp a few times to clean out the loose water and then hit the button a few times to dry them the rest of the way out and set all but one aside for future use

Hope this helps;

The only issue is I can't keep Vodka in my house without drinking it. I'll give it a crack with just the water though. cheers for that.
Anyone else?

LOL That is why I buy Military Special Vodka, You Can't drink that stuff, it tastes aweful LOL

Just a tip, if you do use the syringe powerflush method like I do, be careful if you also microwave the water like I do. It gets really hot really quick, which is very useful to remove Funky Tastes from an atty

You can use denatured alcohol. Same as vodka or ethanol with added poisons to make it undrinkable. After soaking way well.

You can do several things to take out the primer fluid. First, you can blow it out like usual. Then you can de-wick it which is fairly simple. Just look under the bride and use a paper clip to push the wick out. Then take a pair of tweezers to pull it out of there.

Finally, you can soak it in some isopropyl alcohol (91% or higher) for a few hours. Afterwards, rinse it out in some water and let it dry for a day or two. You'll never have to worry about the primer again after all of that.

I just flood mine with some no nic pg. And blow.

I tried doing just the water thing before and it worked for about half hour.
Then I got no nothing from the atty. it just crapped out. Plus it melted my drip tip.
Debridging the atty sounds like a go. I'll give that a crack.
If I have trouble after that i'm just going to vape primer till I can't taste it anymore. lol

I have found that this works great for me and 306 attys. Every night blow out any excess juice and drop it in a cup of hot water (alcohol may be used, I just use water) and let it soak over night. In the morning remove the soaked atty and blow out the water. Drop in 7 drops of pg and blow. Drop another 7 drops of pg and blow. Drop in 5 drops and blow one last time (the object is to replace any water left in the atty with pg). Then drop in 3-4 drops of the juice you will be using that day and start vaping.

I know it sounds like a lot but most of the work is done as you sleep. Time from cup to vaping; less then 60 seconds. And the life of the Atty really gets extended, plus you are cleaning it every day so it is easy to swap flavors from day to day. I also do this with brand new attys (minus the pre-soak).

What ever you do, do not dry burn an atty with primer in it. You will never get the taste out. I personally never dry burn anyway. With my method there is no need to. But if you are going to dry burn it is best to remove the wick or you might end up with a burnt taste that will not go away.

I debridged another atty and it worked a treat. I'm not looking back now. Thanks for your help people. I'm a Vet next month and I still have a lot to learn.

You don't have to debridge it. What I meant was de-wicking it since the wick soaks up the primer fluid that's in there. Plus, it burns relatively quickly which makes the burnt flavor that some people get linger. Which was what happened to me. Once I de-wicked mine. I promised to do that with every one of my new 306's before I even prime it. Became a 306 enthusiast ever since.
