Anybody used this nic base (LIQ)?

[Judy@WavesOfVapour]

The boiling water method sounds better than the breadknife/scissor method

 

[Judy@WavesOfVapour]

I was a little surprised but not disappointed it was shipped from china as the website states its shipped from the USA

Mine was the bread knife, until I got a back hander from the Mrs, I mean brain wave to melt if off

Lol, did you stab yourself doing it? I would. You can imagine, big knife + me results in a mess.

eventually I will place my order, better get it done soon though!
EjuiceBox will you pm me what they hit you with for customs and vat?

All finger intact for me and my helper. I did manage to stab myself with a Stanley knife at the beginning before moving to the hacksaw but it was only a tiny stab, hardly drew blood. There was me wearing gloves trying to hack through a layer of plastic thicker than the bottle. It took an hour and we took turns, one holding the bottle steady and the other sawing.
The biggest tip is the boiling water. I did think of trying that but got worried about heating it up.
If you decant into smaller glass bottles and have a big lunk who keeps pouring after you say 'stop' (as I did) stand your bottle in a container that will catch any spillage and if there is any, it makes the job safer and you can just pour any back into a bottle. In fact I'll be doing that when mixing in future although I've never spilled anything myself (yet).

I've got the liq base as well, don't suppose any of you lot have tried The liq flavourings ?

 

[VapingKing]

Not used yet but will do soon.
Ethelking uses it I think, maybe called Dexter now and I know Billy was looking into it.

as James said. I'm using it currently. seems ok. although I had my work cut out figuring out the strength. Next time I wont order the 4.9-7.5 I will order the 4.8% at least then I know what it is. turns out mine was 4.8 (or 4.9) anyway.

I got the blow torch to mine. its hot glue I think. So using the blow torch at a distance. I warmed it up enough to peel it off.

customs on mine was about 11 Quid.

Have never use it, to be honest I try to get nic base made in UK when I can costs a little more but a bit more reassuring that it may be what it says on the tin.

Did you say exactly what you wanted in Instructions? I did.

I think it was hot glue, so next time may try boiling water. My only concern there is heat shortening the life of it.

I've not had a customs bill. Never ordered outside the EU before but I thought it was charged when delivered or before release. Looks as though I paid nothing extra but don't know why.

Somebody on another forum was asking about flavours but I don't know anybody who's tried them.
