you should have three vials.... one with the magic solution in it to disolve the pellets the other with the oil and the last one should be empty. Ok there are two vials with liquid in there... you can remove that outer piece of metal or alluminum that holds the rubber stoppers in place... do NOT remove the stopper to the empty vial. You may need to use a knife or a pair of plier to bend out the metal-like outer piece to the two vials with liquid in them... Good luck

thanks tv guy. i am following the directions at gotfina.com but it doesnt say how to get the pellets out of the cart. i dont want to break this thing open and have them splatter everywhere. any suggestions?

there is a strip on the top. Get a knife and pull it up then pull it out. Not that hard.

nah..... it is is the finaplix cart, leave it intact. Get a new paper clip and dip it in alcohol to clean it... then push it through each cylinder and all the pellets will fall out of the cart.... do this above the magic solution so it falls directly in.. it is pretty simple. I figure the less hand to hand contact you have with the pellets the less chance of infection and a cleaner final product. The paper clip method take about 45 seconds to empty on cart into the magic solution. Push the paper clip through opposite the side with the small plastic flaps.

Hope it all turns out!

I always us MR. T's and his instruction that come with it are the best. But most are pretty much the same. Try to avoid heating it, this will make it less likely to have a problem.

oh no... I don't think there is anything wrong with heating it if you know what you're doing. I just feel that heating it and having it on the stove or oven can increase the probablity of something going wrong. For the guys that do heat it up to speed up the process I think it is great. I would just rather not, for my own personal reasons and for a newby who isn't quite sure what the process is, I suggest to not heat it until you have made it. That's all.
