I've done a bit of reading tonight about wicking materials.
I started off looking into rayon then got side tracked by a mention of an ALPACA wick.
From the evidence I've seen about this stuff, it has the potential to be a brilliant natural fibre for us vapours and our endeavours.
Here's a link to the main site...

This stuff is natural and untreated. It has good flame resistance and brilliant wicking ability. True the idea of using animal fleece does seem a bit strange, I'm up for trying anything though to find the safest ways possible to enjoy my vape.
Now here's why I'm posting this topic.
I need your opinions on this material and input about whether or not there may be any possible negatives that I'm unaware of.
What would be the best way to wash this stuff initially? Boiling is out of the question as it causes fraying!
Ill definitely buy in a sample and have a test to see how I get on with it, if there's any funky smells or unsatisfactory burning, gunking etc.
Let me know what you think of the idea.
