I have four MP60s in my 450. I routinely soak them in vinegar, take them apart and clean them. This time I can't twist the nozzle/screen off. What should I do? I don't want to damage the screen.
 
Following. Have had the same issue with an mp40 close to a year now even after vinegar and acid baths it still doesn't want to break loose.
 
I notice the MP60 is turn clockwise to open. Do not use vinegar on the magnet. I mix 50% vinegar and 50% water then soak for 15 min but that enough to crack the magnet. I just open RMA and sent an wetside with crack magnet for repair. You can soak all other part of the wetside but not the magnet.

  • None! My inverts are model citizens. :-)
