My RDA is STUCK on my mod

Yes, don't try anything silly or you'll regret it 
Got the same problem with my Aris pro, the rubber stick to the glass with time. But once the top is removed I can grab it firmly with tissue and unscrew it with a bit of force.
What rda is it ?
I'm waiting for my ceramic tweezers. They have a circle to hold on stuck rda. Don't know how good it will work though.

It's an Icon..A lil smart thinking and I got it off. All is well. I hit that panic button a little too quick,forgive me. Anyways, What I did was use a folded up toilet paper to protect the metal and continued with my pliers..Worked like a charm..a few lil scratches on the outside of the deck from my initial attempt.. nothing crazy didn't ruin anything..should be vaping on it soon just waiting for some batteries to charge
Seeing the icon deck, it has the same problem than the Aris: nothing to hold on once the top slip on the rubber. To unstuck the top, instead of turning clockwise (at the risk of getting the rda stuck to the mod), I wiggle the top until some juice get on the rubber, making it more slippery. It works if you have a bit of play.
As i said, if it's stuck I remove the top and unscrew the deck by grabbing it with a tissue.

I have that problem all the time. Go get one of those rubber jar lid openners that they have in the food store, that helps me when my hands have no strength (from carpal tunnel) after working all day. Have to use that trick more than I want to admit.
My next suggestion was a BFH and possibly a blow torch. Glad you got it off though 
Matt, try one of these, it won't get stuck again. https://www.kidneypuncher.com/kp-mod-guard-5-pack/
If I ever see those in Canada I'll definitely look into those a little further
You can make your own, just cut something out the size of the atty base.
I would definitely pick up a set of those ceramic tweezers with the tank grip section, I am a chronic over tightener lol so I use mine all the time. Hell I don't even use the tweezer end because I have a better set of tweezers but I keep them in my rebuilding kit all the time. If u buy them I swear they will be the best 5 bucks u ever spent.

I got 4 of them. I already broke one due to not being of great quality. I keep one in my kit as well. They do work great.
Right On man, I always recommend these to everyone I know who vapes. I can't even count how many times I have used my pair to break loose tanks or coils. Best part is that even if they break it's no great loss, just gotta hop over to the local shop and slap down five bucks and get another set.
