Dab Nail FAQ
How to season my Quartz Nail?
- Before you start dabbing with your new birdhouse quartz nail, it's very important to season it so you can burn off any residual substance that's on the nail. First, scoop some shatter or wax with your dab tool.
- Next, heat your nail for 30-45 seconds. That way you 100% know the residue has been burned off.
- Let the birdhouse quartz nail cool down for about 10-15 seconds. Get your prepared amount of shatter or wax. Then take your dab tool with wax and gently coat the birdhouse dish. Repeat this activity two more times and your quartz nail is seasoned and ready to go.
- If you don't want to use shatter or wax to season your nail, you can heat your nail with a torch for 30-45 seconds. Then use tongs to remove the nail and place it in a bowl of lukewarm water. Repeat this step several times and your nail should be ready to go.
How to use a Birdhouse Quartz Nail?

- Then let the nail cool for a few seconds. While letting it cool, make sure to have your wax ready for the dab hit. For the more advanced users, they like to have a timer with them so that they can practice with the nail and figure out the perfect time to have the most optimal taste.
- Start to gently touch the dab of wax to the dish of the quartz nail and while doing that inhale slowly and smoothly.
- When there is no more wax on your dabber and the chamber is clear, exhale and you may repeat as necessary.
How to clean a Birdhouse Quartz Nail?
- After you've finished your dab session, if there is any residual shatter or wax on the nail, burn it off using the torch to prevent any sticky build up. The more buildup you have, the less of a fresh taste you'll get on the next dab it. Some people use a Q-TIP after they've finished dabbing. They can easily wipe away the wax while the nail is still hot.
- Another thing people do to clean their quartz nail is to pour 91% isopropyl in a bowl and make sure the nail is submerged in alcohol. After several minutes, you may take out the nail and let it air dry.
Quartz, Titanium, and Ceramic Nails
- Titanium Nails retain heat better than Quartz and Ceramic nails. It's also indestructible and easy to take with you on the go. Some people complain about the taste of a dab hit when using a Titanium nail, but if you season it properly, the taste should be fine.
- Quartz Nails are generally cheaper and have a very clean taste. It takes longer to heat a quartz nail and it doesn't hold the heat for as long. If you want to use a quartz nail that heats up faster than the others, we suggest using a birdhouse quartz nail. Keep in mind that glass is fragile. So if you're taking it out with you to a party or friend's house, then make sure to keep it in a protective case.
- Ceramic Nails provide a very clean tasting hit. It retains heat for a much longer time than quartz. BE CAREFUL touching it after using it because although it may seem like it isn't hot anymore, it can definitely burn you. One of the negatives about ceramic nails is that it's known to crack and shatter if heated improperly. You want to apply the heat in a circular motion to keep it even. As long as you're heating it evenly, slowly, and never allowing it to get glowing red, the nail will work just fine.
How to choose the right dab nail?
- There is no RIGHT domeless nail. It's all about preference. The best way to decide which nail you want to buy, you need to ask yourself the following questions:
- What size dab rig do I have? The size of your rig is the first question you should ask yourself so you know which size nail to get. If you have multiple rigs with different sizes, then it'll be important for you to get an interchangeable nail so it can fit both of your dab rigs.
- Do I prefer owning an indestructible nail or owning a nail that can potentially crack or shatter if I use it incorrectly? This is a question you need to ask yourself because that will help you decide if you should get a Titanium, Ceramic, or Quartz nail. If you want something that will never break, get a Titanium nail.
- Is Flavor very important to me? If flavor matters to you, then you'll probably want to buy a quartz or ceramic nail. Glass gets the absolute cleanest taste.
- Can I get a quartz nail that heats up fast? The fastest heating quartz nail is the birdhouse quartz nail. It's definitely delicate. So be careful using it and taking it out with you. It is designed to heat very fast compared to other quartz nails.
