When you break the amp open try scoring it with a small file first then wrap toilet paper around the top and push thetop way from you it should snap right off then use like a 25 to pull the oil out. The small gauge should stop any glass big enough to hurt you.

I agree with you if you're good at opening them yeah you don’t have to worry about filter, but me I am not that good yet some time I can open them clean but other time I have a hard time.

I like the warm water technique. I also like the Pen cap. That is how I do my amps. My friend has an amp opener and I really wasn't impressed with it at all. They get wore out and need replaced after so long. Originally Posted by pitbullguy0101

Depends on the glass amp also. I never had a problem with Omandrens, would snap off without a problem on there own. I got Cido's now and the glass is cheap trying to snap the top just falls apart in the fingers. A small triangle shaped file works good to score them first.
