Hey i just bought some prop that comes in amps. i just wanted to no is there a certain way to open them without losing any of the contents.

..it's easiest if you use a pen cap from a bic pen or buy an amp opener.....

**noah422** · 06-25-2005, 08:05 PM

u just put the cap over and crack it??

**almostgone** · 06-25-2005, 08:25 PM

...that's about it...the neck should snap where the glass is thin......

i used to take pliers and squeeze. don't recommend it however cuz all the little glass particles fall into the oil... but it gets the job done!

Get a cloth and wrap it around the base of the amp, then break off the top. Really helps prevent broken amps.

take the first advice a pen or sharpie cap works like it was meant to be an amp opener. no fuss no muss.

Why not with a sharp knife cut the neck a little this way whentrying to snap it off it will be twice as easy.

..it's easy just snap it with your finger and a napkin..

well i said cut it a little bit i din't say go right trough it! first time i tried to snap it i shattered the whole thing to pieces so i started making a small slid all around and the neck would be really weak and i stoped shattering the amps.

its not neccessary, complete waste of timeand a risk of slicing your finger off. the very first response to this thread is all the amp opener you'll ever need.

a bic or sharpie cap!

I just injected my 1st shot ever yest(depovit)
hold the amp down with ur left hand,,,,,then hold ur middle finger and thumb together then let go of the middle rite on the top part bam gets the job done then fill it up and stab urself

**robkesl** · 06-26-2005, 01:50 AM

i went and got an amp opener, its awesome, nice clean breaks everytime, no glass particles all over, its great!

**hellapimpin** · 06-26-2005, 03:37 AM

i used to use a pen cap..but been doing it with bare hands lately...just pop it off..havent broken one yet..lemme cross my fingers.

**DEEWEEDAVE** · 06-26-2005, 04:17 AM

Hey bro i am new too and this is my first cycle ever and i have amp's i use the pen cap trick it comes right off with no problem and i also ordered a amp opener you can get on the web just do a search for ampule opener on google you'll find one for about $7 or so take it easy

**p0d0078** · 06-26-2005, 10:23 AM

Ithink there is an ampule opener in get****.com. but again go with the earlier advice, you probably won't need the opener just bare hands or a pencap.
