For clarity, Titanium Dioxide is present on the surface of all titanium that has been exposed to air. It is a thin layer that actually gives Titanium its corrosion resistance. As an industrial product, it is found in everything from sunscreen to food additives and is not considered by the FDA to be harmful. The addition of high heat can make the oxide layer thicker and more visible.
To avoid this build up from occurring, we recommend heating the Convector XL at a 45 degree angle placed against the F-Core and rotating the device. Or you can also heat up the Convector XL on the side of the Camo cap and rotate the device. Make sure you only heat the front area of the Camo cap where the heater plates are located. You can use the 3x weld dots that are visible on the outside of the cap as a marker of where to apply the F-Core. Rotating the device is not necessary but it will avoid creating hot spots when heating.
Placing the F-Core directly on the air intake area of the Convector XL cap can generate an serious amount of heat in a short amount of time. If using this method, make sure you're not applying too much pressure on the F-Core with your device. This will result in a "dented" cap.
