So I have a Natural mod my Smoktech and I have been using Noalox on the threads of each part of the PV as well as putting a thin layer on all of the contacts.
I bought a GP Paps Lux from domovaporco yesterday and I am about to go pick it up (I live by their physical location) and I am wondering if I should use Noalox on this mod as well? Would it help like It does on The Natural??

just used some on my sigelei 19 threads the the positive brass connection (will try some on the negative magnet connection later). seems to added the slightest increase in performance. so slight that it could just be in my head. but i will put it on my 3 other mechs as well, it won't hurt, only help, and the threads are a lot smoother i feel. you most likely will not have the thread issue, esp with the GP. good luck to ya.

haha, yea, noalox seems to be worth it. i wish i had two identical setups with which i could compare the vape. but i do feel my sigelei 19 is working a tad bit better. threads are going to last longer for sure too. 2.49 at home depot for a 1/2 ounce bottle. should be enough to apply to several mods i imagine. don't know how long each application lasts though

Just got an SVD, and I know exactly what you mean.
For starters, you can "help" the thing, by sort of pressing "up" as you screw - the grinding is because your screwing it with a SPRING pushing back against you - know what I mean?
So - did you Noalox up your SVD, and did it "grease the wheel" so to speak?

I need to pick some up, too. The threads on my SVD don't make a noise when there's no battery, but if I'm adjusting it with a battery inside, it just grinds and sounds horrible. I hate that sensation. Like eating chickpeas, only with my hands.
