Thread: Test C cloudy and separated?

might try sending an PM to the board sponsor

Some say to pin the vial with just the needle for ventilation then heat it up. First I would try hot water, if no good then try 225 f and see if that clears it. First I would contact your source and tell them to replace. I am sure they wont have a problem with the idea.

Sounds like your shit crashed. Boil some water, let it cool for a minute or two, put your vial in there and watch the magic happen. If that doesn't work, post up again.

Best answer your going to get right here

^^^nope I have a better answer (^_~).....There is a number of reasons why it could be cloudy....one of them being water got into the mixture, your solution did not crash however....this exact problem happend to me when i made prop. it was either water got in somehow, or the concentrations were high (ba, bb, raw), or the quality of the oil used. Those are my best guesses.

the fix:
heat the oil between 220 and 270 and filtering it again with a .45um whatman. The cloudiness will go away permanently and your gear will be sterile. If you want to try to heat your gear without filtering it, stick a pin in the rubber stopper to allow venting because as the alcohol heats and evaporates, it will cause pressure and the vial could explode.

It sounds like it crashed to me. One of the board sponsors here (Great sponsor & great gear) sent me 7 vials and 2 were crashed. At least you know your gear is GTG!!!

Here's my typical fix:

1) Fill a coffee cup with some water (Just lower than the height of the vial) and microwave for a bit until it's just about boiling.

2) take out and let set for a few seconds to cool, then plan in the vial.

3) after a few seconds (30-60), remove and swirl the vial around until the 'crystals' disolve.

4) repeat as necessary.

This way doesn't necessary require a vent pin, but you may want to just in case. This worked for me. I just put them up an a dark place and when I went back to them later... All clear.

GICH!

what brand is it?

Sorry pyes but i have to disagree with this being a better answer. The best answer is to contact the rep first and tell him the problem. If it can be replaced then thats awesome. If you bought a tv from a store and it didn't work, would you try and fix it or take it back????
Now if for some reason the rep didn't fix the problem, then the next best thing is to heat it up.
The reason i am going to go agains the filtering process is because most people don't even know how to use their gear properly, much less filter it and keep it sterile. Thats a whole different ball game. i would much rather tell someone to chop it up as a loss than to risk infecting themselves. safety first

I would rather wait for a few days before posting the brand, I want to see what the board sponsor has to say.

I am trying to contact them, but have not had any luck as of yet.

No bashing by me just yet!

I respect your opinion, but I also disagree with your post. why risk customs siezure ''AGAIN'' (2 more times) or risk prison time ''AGAIN'' (2 more times) when it is an easy fix...I say for what you are gonna pay in shipping it back, buy a filter. It is not brain surgery. My 3 yo son could do it if i told him how to. (^_^) I would much rather buy a $3 filter than pay for shipping, risk customs there and back and another 14 days or what ever your shipping time is. That is just not worth it to me. I see it as i have a vial that is cloudy, all i need is a filter from ebay.

BTW TV"S are not illegal....lol...but i got your point

I am really not trying to be argumentative. You seem like a good dude and have done your research on alot of stuff, So take what i say in stride.

You said your kid could do it if you showed him how?? Who is going to show this man how? Nobody. Yes you could tell him on the internet step by step, but then again i can visually show someone how to do a job at work and they still screw it up. Not saying anything about the originator of this thread cuz i don't know him, but not everyone has common sense on what is sanitary and what is not.
An infection in the muscle is not somethin to be played with.

I personally dont risk customs either way it goes. Domestic is safe. More expensive.. YES. But you don't have to wait the 14 days or even 3 months. So risking customs when you have a domestic is pointless TO ME anyways. But this man didn't go domestic so back to the subject at hand

you said risk prison. the DEA isn't going to bust through this mans door for a nickle and dime order. Crap im sure the DEA is falling asleep waiting for it to come through customs. They can only sit in that van and eat donuts for so long outside his house....

Have you ever watched the drug bust movies???? YOu have to sign for the package. Otherwise you could say, "i didn't know what it was, the post man just gave it to me." Then their going to say," Liar!!! you knew it was steroids." see how silly this sounds.

ON the serious note, i went to prison for 7 straight years. heard many of stories and can honestly say, Its not that open and shut of a case. YOu have to be a proven trafficker. Steriod laws vary from place to place. Its illegal to sale but not illegal to possess in many places. Now before someone argues that they heard a story of someone who got busted, i must say its probably just a story. And if its not then its one of the rare things where the box fell open and someone saw what was inside at the post office and called the cops. Still highly unlikely

just warm it up, it will go back to solution just like that...

You do not have to sign for a package to be busted for it. as long as you accept the package, you can be arrested. that signing stuff is outdated brother. All he needs is a jealous girlfriend or a someone to say he is awaiting gear, and the dea will kick his door in. Did i say 100mls? oops I meant 100 mgs...thats all it takes now. They are always looking for users to get to the sources...if you think for one second they will not bust you for a vial, you are wrong. anyways, you are making it sound like filtering your gear is like building a car....how hard is it to pull out your gear, put it in a beaker, heat it in the oven, sucking it up with a syringe, attaching a filter and pin, and putting it back in the vial? It is harder to bake cookies...ahahaha i could see if we were talking about homebrewing as that can be scary the first time...I could bake my gear in a landfill and my gear would be sterile as i heated it and filtered it....I do not think sterility is an issue for the most amature of homebrewers. That and the human body is very tolerant, it is hard to get an infection. Most people that get infections is from UGL's not filtering their gear or not heating their gear. Just so there is no confusion,....I am not arguing, i have an even tone this whole message....you seem like a cool dude and you are off to a very good start here brother.

I didn't see an arguement in there at all. YOur just stating the facts from your perspective. I am going to let this one go. It seems like yo uhave a very good point for your actions and to me i think i have one. different strokes for different folks. I have another arguement goin on in a Dmz thread that is going to blow way up. Lots of people in on it. so i got to go attend to the damage. hahaha. You argue pretty good, so please stay out of it. LOL. I do this stuff to get people thinking. there are times i know i am wrong. i just want them to do the research and prove why i am wrong.

seems like moisture is in the vial.

send it back and tell them you want double for their stupidity
