*whoops title is supposed to say dust cap

I want to avoid that little bit of water that gets in the very small dimple in the dust cap. Shirts dont cut it, so I always have to blow it out with the tank. Which alerts everyone in the campground/park (although I dont do it with the valve wide open). I think ill just leave it onshore next time, but I cant figure out if it even comes off. Is there a simple way, or will I have to wait until the reg is disassembled for servicing? First stage is a scubapro mk17.

Thanks in advance!
 
My din caps always stay on the beach or boat. I usually screw them together with the tank plugs and clip them in my gear bag so I loose them both.

If you’re comfortable with it, get an Allen key and just remove/replace the DIN parts.
 
I suppose I should say I prefer the hard delrin din caps on my regs.
