Ok, what is happening here?

[Binn]

Both VN with clear tank are purchase around the same time.
I use them interchangeably. Usage time on both are the same.
Using 50/50 @ 18mg of Cotton Candy + Spearmint +Creme de Menthe + Koolada + Green Apple/Peach/Strawberry/Watermelon.

Was changing the VN one day, and washed the tank.
Wiping it with paper tower and i noticed the tank fogged up.
It got worst as the hour went by.

What gives?
Should i dump the tank?

Some juice reaction,use it but check for cracks

 

[Binn]

There dont seems to be any cracks.
Funny it happened to one tank but not the other. Since i am using the same juice in both.

Thats why I dont use plastic.I would throw that away its leeching into your juice and will only get worse with time

Eeww...i think will just do that and replace it with the VN metal tube

As a former bartender, my question to anyone using tanks is this:Whats your favorite drink, alcoholic or otherwise? Now ask yourself what you'd rather drink that out of? For me its glass any day of the week. Plastics can crack or leech and metal can give your juices a metallic taste unless they are non-reactive like stainless steel.

After watching a video of a Phinac pyrex tank being thrown at a brick wall and not even getting a scratch Ive been sold on pyrex ever since.

Yes, I would dump the Tank. Something is breaking down the Tank.

BTW - Spearmint Oils are known Plasterers and can Degrade certain “Plastics”.

BTW2 - This is why I use Glass Bottle to store my e-Liquids. Seen too many "Frosty" Plastic e-Liquid Bottle post here on the ECF.

Had the same thing happen to a stardust. It all went into the trash. Trying to get swapped over to pyrex tanks myself. I got 3 from IBTanked and so far am really happy with em.

IBtank is good!! Especially if you have a particular mod, and you wish to use a particular juice which may break the polycarbs and such. They do customization too.

No Problem.

Also, Malic and Citric Acid which is used to make Flavors Sour, like in Green Apple, have been known to "Frost" some Plastic Tank Tubes and to Crack Clearomizers.
