it happened! oh no..

So just now i was takin a snugly fitted drip tip off of my carto/tank system to put on a carto freshly filled with some strawberry short cake from mrs.. and being in a hurry i didnt leave the tank mounted on my battery... i ended up pulling the cart right out of the tank and ended up with 3 ml of halo hx3 in my lap! I need some more drip tips to avoid this problem in the future lol!

But now here is my question...

After i wash and dry my tank. Do i re-prime the carto and put it back in and fill my tank like normal?? Also i noticed that i was getting less vapor from this particular tank/carto than i have been the last 2 days (this is day 3 on it put around 7ml thru it?).. is this a good time to change cartos? Is it toward the end of its life because of the low vapor? I dont think it was flooded...

If you think it's going bad, I would replace it.

I'd think you could run a lot more Halo liquid than 7ml through a carto. I use Halo and get 20ml plus and it's still drawing well and cracklin' - it's pretty thin.

Just to check and see if its flooded put a paper towel on the connection and blow through it. I get a lot of time out of my cartos at least a week or two if not more.

You could clean your cartos if you would like to expand their
Lifetime.. I posted in a thread earlier a technique I've learned
From this site..

Luckily on Texas, you can get everclear.. I will also use vodka.. I put my attys/cartos in a flavor injector syringe..(for turkey and such) and pull and plunge with the spirits.. Shooting an sucking the alcohol into/out of a clean cup..Then do the same
with distilled water, blow out excess, and put them in the oven on 175 for 30 - 45 minutes.. Then air dry over night, and they are vapable first thing in the a.m.
