What. I want to know with the old style metal tubes is how you know when it's full???
Eta I know the v5 comes with viewing window but I've got black metal tube for my vivi nova and no idea how much juice I put in hence not using it anymore. Obviously on the first fill you can use syringe to measure but next time you don@ know how much is left in??

Doesn't UKecigstore sell the one with the viewing slit in the tube? Or is that on the newer Nova? I can not remember now? I remember seeing something somewhere at some point

I bought a few metal tubes as they look much better than the plastic ones, but in terms of practicality they're bloody rubbish, so I'm using the plastic ones most of the time. I don't know why they insist on putting the stupid measurements on though, as I can see how much is in there and they'd look much better without.

You may be able to rub out the markings with some cotton wetted with nail polish remover.
Wash off the acetone with plenty of water immediately with plenty of water..

I would be very careful using acetone as may dissolve the plastic. Be much better to polish the markings off with something like, Brasso, T-cut, or similar used sparingly. You could actually even try toothpaste to polish off with a cotton cloth. Idea is to mechanically remove rather than using a solvent which will attack the plastic.

If you're prepared to spend some time with a bottle of VG, that may remove the markings with some elbow grease . . . it does on syringes, where you want the markings.

VG has not removed my markings yet on tank, however it has not removed on syringe either as there is a neat trick. Get some waterproof sellotape, or any other laminate film, and stick a layer over the markings.
