I get it: some people love gplat & some people are scared of gplat. I do not dislike gplat or anyone who owns/works for Gplat Wires Vapinology. I do not dislike anyone who sells or uses gplat.
The only thing that I dislike is dishonesty.

First of all, we would like to thank all the people who are supporting us since we started and until now
. In short, yes, there is Manganese in the wire. However, it is a small component of the wire that is present in the other wires that are used for vaping also. We are unsure of why there is such a huge issue arising. Manganese is present in multivitamins also, therefore it is not bad for you unless large quantities are absorbed, inhaled, ingested, etc. The Vapinology team is currently working on clearing up the issue. We are in the process of generating a data sheet for the public to see in the next 24-48 hours.
Our wires are some of the safest on the market. We are attempting to provide the information that the public is requesting while keeping in mind that we are part of a "competitive" business. Thank you all for your patience and understanding.

G-Plat Public Announcement:
As all of you are aware, there have been some concerns that have been brought to our attention in regards to the composition and safety of G-Plat wires. We have spoken to the metallurgist at the facility in which our wires are being prepared and he has given us some insight regarding the “Manganese” content of G-Plat wires.
Manganese has no part in the actual composition of both our V1.2 and Elite versions of G-Plat. However, during the manufacturing process, the wire is exposed to Manganese indirectly due to other types of wires containing Manganese being produced within the same facility.
Although it may seem as if a member of the G-Plat team issued a WARNING about the use of G-Plat wires, the conversation has been misinterpreted to make it seem as if G-Plat wires are a health risk. Our team member, knowing that
our wires may have been exposed to trace amounts of Manganese, was only trying to look out for the best interest of an individual that stated he was allergic to the substance. With that being said, we would like to apologize for the delay in providing the information that the vaping community has been requesting. We are currently waiting on our metallurgist to provide us with the most accurate information about the wires (i.e. although Manganese is listed on the MSDS, it is not part of the actual composition of G-Plat wire).
The information will be disclosed to the vaping industry no later than tomorrow evening.
We appreciate those of you who believe in our product and continue to stand behind us as we overcome this obstacle!
Regards,
Mark Vape, Melmie Lincod & G-Plat Team
