    was recently putting things away and wipped the inside of the 2″ colomn and black stuff came out on paper towel. Its been awhile since I did a vingar run, maybe 5-7 charges not that much. Is this normal ?

    Yep. As long as it itsn’t blue/green. no need to do anything, its natural. be sure to give it a good rinse down with hot water after a run, and thats all it should ever need.Fear and ridicule are the tactics of weak-minded cowards and tyrants who have no other leadership talent from which to draw in order to persuade.

    It’s normal in my shed. Given time the black stuff will start flaking off. Thats when I use a soft brush and running water to remove what comes off easily.
