I've heard a lot about how to get vapor residue off of car windows and such... ...but what about stopping it from accumulating in a small room? Am I going crazy, here? Is the Pillsbury ghost paying me routine visits and leaving sweet-smelling ectoplasm all over the place? Why does nobody talk about this? From what I can tell, it does accumulate wherever there is air moving through tight spaces. Doesn't accumulate in rooms I don't vape in. But it travels through the AC just fine. By the time my AC filter's ready to be swapped, it's all trapped in there. I can see it condensing around the vents sometimes. IDWK what the ducts look like.
My bedroom is rather small (12x12.) I vape in there fairly often and the PG/VG residue is gradually taking over. Basically, where dust accumulates, juice also accumulates, forming a slimy, sticky-yet-astringent layer of gook. I now keep a microfiber cloth at hand just so I can dust shit off whenever I feel like it. Having to maintain that habit gets old, though.
It builds up on the ceiling fan the quickest. If I don't clean it once a week, it starts shooting off gobs of custard-scented dust globs. The tops and sides of the blades get covered, no matter which direction it spins. Sometimes it sprays the walls with little juice spatters, too. I'll never forget the first time it happened. I thought I heard a bug hit the wall followed by something spraying. Thought it was a cockroach, but what I saw instead was a glob of juicedust splattered up there. After that, it was just a cataclysm of dust globs hitting every wall. Fun to clean. Woulda preferred if it was a roach TBH :/
There are spots where it has seeped into the paint and isn't coming out. It's ruined some posters. I've since learned to move them out of the blast radius. The walls, I have everything I need to take care of, provided the drywall underneath is still okay. But there's no point if they're just gonna get hit again.
My computer is the other issue. Juice puddles used to condense under the chassis (on wood flooring, no less,) but setting it on a rug fixed that.
It generally stays away from the main components inside the case. It's just that goopy dust that's impossible to completely get out binds to the fans. I'm surprised it hasn't killed them all, yet. I'm pretty sure it just killed my CPU fan. My processor jumped up to 70C before I noticed that the fan was barely spinning. The motor definitely seems to be gunked-up. Good thing it happened while I was at home or I wouldn't be typing this until next week.
So now, I'm sitting here with a small window fan loudly pushing air into my open computer case (which is probably sucking more dust into it,) waiting on a new fan, and trying to figure out how to minimize this problem without not vaping in the bedroom or having to constantly clean like I have serious OCD. I literally have to keep every surface dust-free at all time or it takes over. I don't hate dust like that. Goop that destroys everything porous... ...different story.
Is there some filtration system that will work for this? Or maybe some way to at least filter the air going into the computer that's not some ghetto shit. I could do a liquid fanless setup, but that's pretty steep. Is there something I can treat the walls with? Perhaps some weather treating?
I know I could just not vape in here rather than attempt to vape-proof the room, but c'mon! It would suck to not be able to vape in the house anymore. That's supposed to be a benefit of vaping, right?
