Crashed prop

**bob87** · 07-13-2013, 04:13 AM

Just pulled my last vial of prop out of my safe and noticed it has clear shards floating around in it....

Does this mean my gear is ruined??

Run it under hot water for a few minutes. If the crystals dissolve leave the vial out for a few hours to make sure it does not crash again.

Boil about 1" of water in a pan and place the vial in there on a low heat for 5-10 minutes.

As said above keep your eye on it for a few days see if it crashes again or not

Hold a lighter under it. Works much faster. Shake it up a few times. Then once all gone, shake again and let it cool to room temp

Warm tap water.

Hah, I'd avoid exposing the glass to direct fire

Yeh to be safe. Ive sat mine (well. Test 400 blend containing prop) on a warm radiator (not hot!!!). For half a day n sat in room temp for few days n was fine for me. Mine looked more like whiteish whisps. But it was fine

Just boiling the kettle then going sit in the water for a while. Once they dissolve I let it cool for a bit then pin my room is generally cold maybe I should wrap them in some socks in future

Kettle didn't work used the lighter trick and got it all back to liquid wrapped it in my socks and put it back in my safe will see if it stays when I get it out for next jab.
If it doesn't can I just heat it each time?
Or do I ditch n buy some more
