If you have a mechanical device, you can use the "pulse" method. Install your wick and coil raw, then start firing the atomizer in short bursts, or pulses. The coil itself will oxidize the wick wherever it touches it. At first, the wire will only glow red on the ends where it is connected to the positive post and the negative screw; then, as the wick becomes oxidized, the glow will slowly start to spread around the coil. If it gets "stuck," i.e. stops spreading, you may have to tweak the coil a bit to even up your wraps or to make sure the wire is making good contact with the wick all the way around. Keep pulsing and tweaking until the entire coil fires when you hit the button. At that point, you can put a drop or two of juice on the wick and burn it off to add another layer of protection.
I've been using this method for a while now, and it works especially well on the RSST because of the insulated wick hole. It works better with ribbon wire than regular 32g, but I've done it with both. You do need a mechanical APV to do it, though. I haven't tried it on a regulated device, but I don't think a VV or VV/VW will fire due to the amp limit on the switch. Make sure you're using a high drain battery like an AW IMR, preferably one that is about midway through a charge cycle.
Hope this helps.
