Barnacles

Post by Snowboarder2757 »

My branch torch has 3 barnacles in the rock that is preventing the torch from fully coming out. I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem and how they got rid of them. I have tried to pull them out with tweezers, but that didnt work. Any sugjestions?

Ok so I decided to apoxy them in their holes so they cant come out and affect the torch. Good idea or not?
