Breightmet Boy Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 I’ve been having a few problems with the old Richard Gere’s, I’ve only had them done once (30 years ago) and all they did was pour warm water into the canal. So I’ve decided to do it myself with a empty Fairy Liquid bottle and warm water like this fella, looks quite simple to me. Unless one of you lot have a better idea, I’ll do it tomorrow morning. Do any of you lot do your own? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MancWanderer Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 I use Cerumol. Put a few drops in each day. Can’t believe how much I get out after a couple of days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter only1swanny Posted February 26, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted February 26, 2021 I do it with a bottle like in the video, You get wax out, just floats in the sink (if you do it over a sink). Sometimes some water gets a big lodged so just keep you head tipped for a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter MickyD Posted February 26, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted February 26, 2021 Does your shower head not have adjustable spray settings. Put it on the winnit removal setting and point it at your ear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glennboltw Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 (edited) https://djbhearing.co.uk/ I use this guy, £60 but well worth it, don't need to use oil to soften the wax he use a suction machine to get rid of it all.

mickbrown Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 I did olive oil once. Thought nowt of it, then about 2 weeks later I was getting dressed and there was a rattling/buzzing noise coming from my ear, thought it was a wasp. Then a ball of wax dropped out. Was fucking rank. Never done it since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd then need a calpol syringe full of boiling water top soften it up... and then drive it home with a power shower... be careful not to perforate your eardrum though.

For a few days had muffled hearing and then when I was diving had pain in my ear got back on the boat and tipped my head to the side and a big pellet of furry wax came out tipped head other way and same happened. Was sore afterwards for a day or so but never had hearing so clear @boltondiveryou ever had that? I was doing my advanced open water at the time and down to 40m. Saw a whaleshark that day as well which was pretty cool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
