I can't really see but what I think is happening is that it is oxidizing to a certain extent which happens normally.

Also, your e liquids will cause a layer of "Gunk" to build up on your coils. Again quite natural and it can be removed by dry burning the coils.

Just pull out any wicking material then fire those coils up til they glow red a few times then when cooled down brush off lightly with a soft tooth brush.
Awesome thanks alot man! Happy vaping

you are using a coil head not a rba which I thought so please disregard my last reply. You would need to just re build it if you know how.

What e juice are you using? The part of the coil that is rusting is the part that sits in the juice?

The thing about pre-made coil heads is that you can run into a bad batch of them at any time and there is pretty much nothing you can do about it.

Some companies will make it right by you but not all.
