Nemguy123, I think it was you I read a post from not too long ago about high flow being able to save them (along with all the other stuff light and water). I was going to add, but too much to type. I too saw the same. Many years ago I used a mj1200 on a timer on/off every minute pointed right at the mouth of a dying gig. After a couple weeks it looked fantastic. I moved it closer, like 8” from the mouth to add more flow. I basically blew out the insides until it was a shell, but it was a fantastic looking shell for weeks. The mj1200 brought it back, but moving it closer blew out its guts and it turned into a shell. Looked amazing, but eventually after weeks the mouth wouldn’t close between breaks and I saw it was hallow inside. There’s a happy medium somewhere I believe, too high flow like I had removed the insides, but when it was lower in the beginning, still very strong, and forcing a mj1200 flow right inside isn’t good, the high flow I saw recovered it, but I’m extreme. If a little is good, more must be better is what I thought. Lol not so. That gig I brought back, but then increased way too much, and killed it. My take away was if I could give it high enough flow to flush the decay away, and not blow out the insides, I could get it to recover. But then Cipro came along and I stopped playing with extreme high flow. I think you’re on to something with high flow initially to aid in flushing.
