do u use only one filter for the whole 10 gm! change the filter every 2 grams!
The whatman filter is supposed to be able to clean 10 grams and the liquid can be up to 20 degrees F I change it at 5 grams to be safe with the pellets thoughQuote:

re filter it.. you don't want that gunk in your ass.
Im not an expert or anything with the conversion stuff but it sounds like to me the obvious answer would be to break it down into smaller conversions instead of trying to do the whole wad at once.
Corrct me if im wrong but one filter wouldnt last for 100+ CC's would it???
well, I think it has something to do with mixing the huge amounts of pellets into the tiny amount of "secret solution" they gave me. It actaully still seperated the tren from the binders but maybe it needed more solution or something, I don't really know and am definatly not a chemist? anyways I will try refiltering it?
sounds right to me, have had the same problem but just warmed the oil and re filtered
I only get 30cc-40cc through a .45 filter..and that's when I prefilter all of it with a coffee filter....After having a filter housing crack, I guess I'm too paranoid to push the filters very hard... :unsure: ...Quote:

yea a filter can handle maybe 8 to 10 grams but if u can use several filters the product will be clean and clear! I alway do 4 grams at the most, then I filter 2 grams with one filter and then change the filter then re filter the whole 4 grams one more time with one filter! so filter filter filter filter
I was wondering if the whatman pre-filters would be useful here. They're cheap and they can be installed directly on top of the whatman, presumably grabbing larger particles and conserving the whatman. Anyone try this?Quote:

Yeah, I had that same thought. The only thing that makes me wonder, though is that the whatman pre-filters are .45 also. I'll be honest and admit I don't have a clue how they work. Logically, I figured they must remove larger particles, but because of the .45, I just don't know.Quote:
