Volcano's are great! I have nothing but good things to say...
...except for one thing... I hate cleaning the damn thing...
So does anyone agree? taking all that apart gets old after a year. What does everyone use to clean theirs? :jointsmile:

91% Isopropyl is my choice for cleaning no matter which vape you own.
yeah I bet it is..only downfall I tell ya. And that's exactly what I use too, works pretty good although some pieces I have to soak for a while.Quote:

I then scrape the dried residue off and add a little to my bowls for revaping. It's just condensed vapor so it's not like smoking pipe resin. Works great! :thumbsup:
is it safe to smoke or vape the resin after its been in the Isopropyl?Quote:

Before getting a Volcano Vaporizer, I used to use a glass water pipe. I started using Formula 420 for cleaning it, and it was awesome! I had a bunch left over, once I switched to the Volcano. When it came up on my first cleaning, I figured I'd give it a try, and it worked just as good on those parts, as it did on the glass water pipe.
It takes a while to take it all apart and clean everything. I also separate my metal parts from my plastic parts. There are two different formulas for each. I'm not sure of the harm of using one formula for both.
You can find a dealer near you at their web site - Welcome to Formula 420
I would guess that the one for Glass-Metal-Ceramic has some kind of solvent in it that wouldn't be good for plastic.Quote:
