when drawing from a vial

[BornAgainPagan]

when drawing from a vial is it ok to inject air into the vial then draw, or will this contaminate it? it seems to draw easier with the back pressure than without, as it tends to create a vaccum when you just poke it then draw. anyone do this?

i'm pretty sure that is what you are supposed to do. at least that is what i do with my slin ( i dont take gear). about contamination; there is a chance but it is so minute i wouldnt worry about it. there is alot greater chance from the gear itself being contaminated when it was made or improper injection procejures.

not only is it okay, but it is recommended. It helps to avoid a vacuum.

cool, thanks. it sure makes it easier. i am a freak about something getting contaminated and wanted to make sure.

Dude,
Being from Central Ca you will probably contaminate because of the poor air quality!!!!!!!!!!!
Just kidding bro...couldnt resist....

sadly that is all to true. all the smog from so cal likes to come settle in the valley. sometimes you think it's fog, but fog shouldn't have that smell....
