I would try rinsing in the sink with water as hot as you can stand for a few minutes. Then dry burn. That gets rid of menthol for me and menthol is pretty strong. If that didn't work I would soak it in alcohol or vodka overnight and let it dry for a couple of hours. That should do it.

the water will not damage the wicks? im not to iffy on using alcohol. but if the water should hurt the wicks ill give it a try.

I've bought the 3 minute denture cleaners, drop the heads in hot water with one of the tablets. Rinse it with hot water and dry burn. Really strong flavors I've sometime had to repeat the process and let the heads soak overnight.

As of late, I usually just build a new head when changing flavors in my vivi nova's. It may seem like a daunting task, but it's really not

Water is just fine for the wicks. I clean mine every couple of tank fulls and dry burn while they are still wet. I have one VN head that has had at least 60 ml through it.
