Soaking a l laminated layered tip in milk will make the tip delaminate..........
I've never soaked it in Milk, but have soaked it inside'er.
i was told by a friend to wait for 48hrs.then put it in microwave
I have a cheap laminated layered tip right now that is soaked in milk for 24hrs.i was told bby a friend to wait for 48hrs.then put it in microwave to dry it.not so sure about this process but might try to air dry it first.
Air = Good
Microwave = Bad
In other words, if you don't plan on eating it, don't Nuke it.
Nothing good comes from things that shouldn't be put in a micro wave that aren't edible.
Glue, for one.
You never mentioned using a tip press after the Milk bath. Milk or any liquid will make the tip expand. If you're not going to press it after, how are you planning on using it.
Cause its going to get real big after.
Milk is Viagra to a tip.
See, this is always how trouble starts.
It always starts out as, "I was told", "I heard", "My friends friend does this",
.
The milk smell pretty bad after 24 hours for me. I've only tried 1 - 8 hours max then vice it and let it dry. But sadly, it always fails on me. Using Elkmaster. There's no stated formula online and the only one available is from Gladiator which appears first when you google.
I'm getting Picone's tip press and see how it goes.
I think AZ is the best sources you can have.You won't find anything in google
i actually thought about this.I wasn't really sure microwave was a good idea.i had it soaked for 24hrs and will dry for 48hrs then will press it.But how would i know if the tip is dried well?
A little bit here and there actually. They say soaking it will expand the tip, I soak an Elkmaster but it didn't expand.![]()

Please let me know what kind of milk to soak the tips in. There like so many kind of brand of milk. Does soaking the tip in 1%, fat free, 2% low fat, soymilk make any difference on the tips ? J/K :grin:
The one i did just now didn't expand as well ,am i doing it wrong?![]()
