Copper RDA worries

[GeorgeTz6]

So, a friend was selling a copper goon v.1 in perfect condition for 25 dollar... And the beers were on him, so..XD...

But, I've been doing some research and a lot of people say that copper is very unsafe, and turns cotton green and tastes metalic and shit, and vaping it is toxic and you will die and the world is gonna end...

Are these people talking about older stuff, or what, cause I've been using it for about 3 hours now, and its been kickin ass... My ass XD, cause I have 20mg nic...

But really though, if its bad for me I need to know so I stop using it

No it's not bad. People have been using copper mods since they came out. I'm about to use one in 20 minutes after I rebuild it.

I picked up a copper tube mod from FT, and it came with a copper Goon 1.5. They work great together, and with the right build it performs like a champ.
No metallic flavor at all.

Keep it clean and below about 700 degrees you are safe..... the more to you let it be exposed to oxygen then more it will patina. Keep it clean and polished or protected it will stay shinny and safe.

Thats good, but I have a problem that I think is not normal... I shine it, and its nice beautiful . and by the next morning it has dark fingerprint smuges that cannot be just wiped off

Patina. It happens to copper. Just have to use it and polish it. I like the patina though. Usually force patina copper and clear coat to get rid of the penny smell. Lol

it's called oxidation, which causes tarnish, patina.... and IS a natural process. the result of metal being exposed to air and moisture.
wash your hands more, skin oils are what turn dark, and wipe mod down with a clean cloth between uses OR Coat the metal with a protective barrier.

The inside of the RDA needs to be kept clean, the outside of the RDA, or a mod doesn't matter much. If the inside of the RDA shows a greenish/blueish coloring, it needs to be cleaned. You can use Catchup and an old toothbrush for example. Let the Catchup soak in the RDA overnight, use a brush, in order to brush it down, rinse it, and dry it thoroughly.
