Excellent. Thank you.
I would imagine using distilled water when dampening a cloth would be advantageous.
Using distilled or "activated" water makes no difference to the paper cones it seems to be a bad idea, with the amount of "bad" being proportional to the amount of water.

PS- Activated water was a scam from at least the 1980s that you could make water better than water by having it activated in some magical way.
Do drivers become dirty when grilles are left on? Mine are difficult to remove/replace, and some take offense when guts are exposed. Same ones who think cookware should be hidden away as though one had an invisible chef or only dined out.
