Heartfelt beads fiasco--or is it?

[Wasatch_B]

I have distilled water in a spray bottle that I use, but the wife replaced the distilled water with vinegar and didn't tell me. I sprayed my bag of heartfelt beads maybe 3 good times before I realized something did not smell right. Never made it into my humi.
What do you gents recommend? Salvageable?
Thanks.

..... I wouldn't think they would be any good, but that's just me. Wouldn't want my cigars smelling like vinegar.

Send Brian aka Viper a message and ask. On the surface, I think your beads will be useless for sometime or maybe even permanently. The best advice I could give is soak the bad and contents in distiller water. Rinse several times and repeat, flushing the beads. Let them dry and then rehydrate. This may take several times, but I think the vinegar may be removed. But, this is only a guess. Wouldn't hurt to try.

Personally, I'd toss them and buy some new ones.

I wouldn't risk it.Could be trouble in the future. Throw it out.

I'd buy new beads too.

 

[SouthernerInSask]

I disagree ^^^ But only with the phrasing Bondo lol

Maybe you can "Allow" your wife to buy you some new beads

 

[Wasatch_B]

Ordered new beads.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts..fairly new beads, which is a damn shame.

I would have just put them out in the sun to get rid of the vinegar taste.

 

[Mr. McSquirelly]

When in doubt, throw it out.

Throw some dog rockets in a baggie with those sticks. Vinegar infused smokes

but why would vinegar need to be in a spray bottle? lol

she's trying to sabotage your hobby/passion, this must be dealt with

Killing weeds or cleaning the windows would be the best reason to fill a bottle with vinegar.
My spray bottle of DW is hid so the wife can't do anything dumb with it !

Mopping smoked meat.

Heartfelt is closed until the 12th or 13th and is giving a 15% discount for all beads ordered while they are gone. As least there is a bright side.

 

[Lapithicus]

I saw that in my future. That is why I wrote "DISTILLED WATER ONLY" on the side of my spray bottle.

 

[joshthe6th]

Don't use it. Toss it.

 

[BMack]

Get rid of it. Also don't use the beads.

What is more expensive? New beads or refilling your humidor?

 

[Bondo 440]

I'd buy new ones. Not worth the risk.

Edit. . . Sorry now I see you already did.

Buy some KL instead. Next time something doubtful is sprayed on it, you'll have more replacement than you need.
