A PBusardo Video – Wick Testing
In this video we take a look at 4 popular wick materials…
- Organic Cotton Balls
- Hemp
- Japanese Cotton Sheets (Koh Gen Do)
- CelluCotton (Rayon)
We talk about them, wick test them, burn them, taste them, vape them and talk all about them.
This is certainly not the end all, be all list of wicking materials, but it’s some I’ve been using to easily wick, remove, and re-wick my coils. Sorry I didn’t have the time to get “Cotton Bacon” in this round.

The Post Review Follow-up:
The Video:
- 7/23/14 – Something not elaborated on in the video was ease of use. I thought they were all pretty easy to use when it came to wicking. The hemp bunched up at times when working it through the coil, but it wasn’t a big deal. Remember to cut the Japanese Cotton along the fibers. This will make it wick better and make it stronger for working it though your coil.
- 7/23/14 – I got a fair amount of “popping” from the Rayon, this usually tells me that not enough material was used. Since the Rayon doesn’t seem to expand as much, you may want to keep that in mind and be sure you have enough of it through your coil. Make sure it’s nice and snug in there.
