Kanger Protank 2 not coming apart....

[LouiseBelcher]

I'm trying to take my Protank 2 apart, and I can take the base and the drip tip off, but the top and bottom pieces are ON THERE. They're not coming off. I don't want to wrench on it since it's glass and I'm afraid of it breaking in my hands. Are they usually hard to take apart the first time?

It may be kind of tight. Warm it up in some hot water, dry it off on the outside with some paper towel an try. My pt2 was a bit tight the first time I took it apart.

Snug is fine when you put it back together. No need to use monkey strength to put it back together.

Hold the tip and the base only and turn. Just saying.

I had a similar problem with my mini pro tank 2.
I found that gripping the 2 different parts with my fingers was not enough so I used 2 silicone round egg shapes that you crack the eggs in to in the frying pan. They gripped perfectly and it loosened straight away first attempt.

I have small girly hands and sometimes found the tanks were too slick and smooth for me to get a good grip. I'd run them under hot water and then hold the base wearing rubber dish washing gloves to help me grip as I unscrewed LOL. Lightly dampened paper towel also improves grip too

They can be a bit difficult to get apart, if I can't do it by hand I've had good luck using a paper towel to help grip the ends
