I will NEVER vape in my car again (probably...maybe)

@Livaz1 , this is one time I am actually happy to get your disagree.

Because I am glad you disagree with "windows aren't lungs" and I'm not the one doing the disagreeing with that statement.

I hope yours don't get too gunked up or streaky, but as you've noted, there are TONS of useful ways to clean your windows, and maybe you'll be able to try those remedies once your lungs become hard to see through.

LOL, we're going to have to agree to disagree. I hope you aren't to worried about it, because it may be awhile before we find out the true nature of your wonderings but I bet sometime. In the distant future.

What I disagree with is your analogy. You are talking about stomach acid in the eyes. Something none of us are doing. What we ARE doing as a matter of fact is inhaling oil into our lungs. I agree our lungs are not windows BUT we are visibly able to see the film on our windows and it is exactly the same stuff we inhale. Yes our lungs are living organs and have an ability to remove and repair unlike windows. I’m a 10 year vaping veteran, I use attys and vape huge amounts of clouds. Do I feel better vaping than when I was smoking YES.will vaping be harmful to the lungs? YES. The thing is too many vapers are ignorant and defensive towards our precious devices, Won’t even consider the negative opinions of possibilities of using them. I’m a realist, not naive. 10 years in the game

Time will tell I suppose.

 

[untar]

to me its a oil

water dissolves it

Pick one. They can't both be true at the same time.

The inside of lungs are moist. Glycerin is not "an" oil, it's quite different.

Go to google search, type in something like - "why are the lungs moist", or something similar like "how do lungs work"


Go to google search, type in something like, "what is vegetable glycerin" or "what is the difference between oil and glycerine"

 

[keelalagirl55]

Glycerine is derived from oils, but it is a sugar alcohol NOT an oil. NO oil will attract or mix with water.

Lungs are self cleaning.
Windows are not.

....there are two different types of treatment for glass that makes it self cleaning....

So we should simply line our lungs with titanium dioxide to assist the cleaning process

I'm not going first though, I just remember some other stuff I have to do urgently

 

[MacTechVpr]

Isn't it funny how glycerin loves to accumulate on the underside of glass?

Just love cleaning that stuff (hi-rise windows are fun too).

Good luck.

My PG and VG are water soluble. Why it doesn't just wipe off when the windows show a haze is beyond me. It takes Windex and a micro-fiber cloth.

 

[MacTechVpr]

A simple damp wipe with a microfiber towel s'enough to see the red lights comin'.

Hidden vape hint:

(Without a bit'a H2O stuff ain't goin nowhere. Sticky magic.)

Good luck.

Yep! A dry cloth makes it better until night comes! Then, you realize that it needs a Windex cleaning ...

 

[Sugar_and_Spice]

Since both pg and vg absorb water I would think that some other chemical is needed to remove it from windshields/glass. Vinegar or alcohol comes to mind. Otherwise it just smears.

Never used to be a problem 'till the big power box and the comp mod. Doomed, I tell ya. End up chainin' the little guys to batt null but the big guns are always ready to go out the door. Doomed.

Good luck.

Microfiber is readily absorbent of water. Glycerin not so much. But glycerin is a humectant…sticks to water. Combine both, voila. All else is decoration.

(Advice from a glass lover.)

Good luck.

To come back to the car windshield - there's something I do to my scooter helmet and bathroom mirror to stop water vapor from condensing (to be able to shave after a shower or avoid driving into a wall when I have to close the helmet).
I take a bar of dry soap, rub it all over the surface and polish it with a linen cloth rag until it's just a very thin film. Seems to work well but needs to be repeated about every 2 weeks. Obviously the surface has to be cleaned well before doing that.

I don't know if this keeps our kind of vapor from condensing yet, may be worth a try.

I used this with my snowboard and mountain bike goggles. Worked like a charm. Can't comment how it works against vapor....I don't wear goggles when I vape

ive been cleaning my windows with windex for years now, it's a family secret. what's really interesting is last year I found out that it vapes real good too. and I figure if you can vape windex without issues, the FDA should stay away from our e-liquids. if anything i'm experiencing nothing but positive results. and i've been vaping windex. it's a family secret.

windex poisoning - Google Search

car - Invisible Glass, microfiber mitt on the IG mitt on a stick, blue shop towels
house - Invisible Glass & cheap vapor towels

Car twice/year
House once/month in Winter

Lungs are self cleaning.
Windows are not.

(Drops microphone and walks off stage)

Lungs are only self cleaning for so long, eventually they stop cleaning when they have had enough punishment, eventually. Medical fact.
