We've all been told to put the dust cap on the first stage before soaking the reg in a rince tank because it's not good to get water in the first stange. Well, I admit it. I have forgotten a couple times. I know water will get forced down the HP hose and into the SPG
Questions:
1) How harmful is this, after all its fresh water
2) As a feild repair I removed the HP hose, put the reg on a tank and cracked the tank valce open. A bit of fresh water came out and then no more. replaced HP hose and it seems fine.
The reg is an Apeks ATX50 with about 50 dives on it over the last 6 months.
