Woodvil... how do we clean them?

[SteamStack]

Just wondering what is the recommended why to clean both the oil and poly coated woodvils?

 

[JC Okie]

Damp cloth on the outside and inside...then re-oil them. Q-tip and alcohol for the 510 and contacts. Re-Deoxit. Don't get them dirty....

Oh so no cleaner what's so ever. Germ fest?

 

[supertrunker]

PG is a potent germicide.

I'm sure we could use a mild (dish washing) soap, but I'd wipe it off with clear water pretty quickly then re-oil my mod. Soap and water won't hurt the outside if it's poly coated. I just treat mine like I would a nice piece of solid wood furniture.

Ok.. yeah just figure, one hand has dirty phone and in the other oiled Woodvil the germs would get on the mod.

 

[supertrunker]

The germs would naturally travel up one arm from the phone, across one's shoulders and down the other arm to reside in the mod, where they would taunt every other germ about the paradise they had found.

Metal Reos do not suffer from this because the occasional arcing flash fries any germs that land on a metal surface.

Clean the phone too?

Not often no..

I vape with whatever hand is free at the time and alot of times like right now both hands are on the phone typing away. Hehe

But unlike the phone case I want to baby the wood. Also don't want to seal in the crap when I do oil them up.

Edit.. also makes you think when you go to buy a used wood mod.

Then i direct to the Guru of wood - Nerak, who also recommends Howards wax and the one with sunshield or ultraviolet protection, which stops wood from darkening and germs from sunburn.

I would think if you don't messy stuff on the wood, then either wash messy stuff off the hands before handling the mod, or use a metal mod until such time as you can wash the offending stuff off your paws.

and germs from sunburn.

I'll never again be able to pick up my woodvil without picturing germs like this...

^^ awesome.


I'm always washing the hands before touching my woodvils.
