· The Plug is back - V2 HotEnd :-( How to clean?
I can't help you on the plug but I just cleaned the PLA off from my parts because of a leak. What I did was I seperated the parts from the heater block and heated the brass parts with a flame until the plastic liquefied and wiped it off with a cloth. I repeated the steps until they were clear, just make sure you free up the threads. I also took a flame to it before I connected the brass parts again to get rid of any fibers from the cloth.
Not sure how good this advice is since I haven't pieced mine back together 100% yet but the parts that did go back on, went without issue. Good luck!
