cleaning inside my glass cone peice

any tips or tricks to get right inside under the bowl and clean it like new?

Rubbing alcohol and salt/sand....thats the common solution for cleaning pipes. Dont buy any of that special "Pipe, Chalice, etc." cleaner....its just alcohol and sand. Save your $$$.

Mix up both the alcohol/sand, pour through a funnel into your pipe, cover up holes with fingers, shake the hell out of it.

alcohol and salt works fine


sometimes i have to stick a q tip soaked in alcohol under the bowl to clean up the rest of the grit

i have tried alcohol and salt and today tried acetone and salt ( epsom salt)

but it doesnt just clean it, whats a q tip?

q tip = cotton swab?

get ziplock sandwich bag, pour rubbing alcohol into bag, pour salt into bag. next shake the bag for a couple mins and watch it look like new again.

this is what my bowl looked like after a simple clean. it use to be black

thats very clean... do u use normal salt?

also what bongs that for ? weed star ?

oh and yeah a q tip is a good idea

I like to use a natural chemical called citri-solve, it's orange extract and it's good at getting anything sticky off, use that and salt and it will get clean. I have been using it for years......JR

here is the stuff, I guess it's called Citra Solve, sorry

Yup normal salt and rubbing alcohol, the bong is just a standard bong from a headshop.

but see how you are spending 80 bucks on something when a 3 dollar bottle of rubbing alcohol can do the same trick

thats 80 for a case of 12. i like to use isopropyl alcohol, its is more concentrated than rubbing alcohol, and rock salt or kosher salt, the crystals are more jagged and break up resin well.

...does the rock salt scratch the glass??

NO...........

Yeah it's only about 5 bucks a bottle, it can make like 12 gallons of cleaner, but using it straight works about 1000x better than alcohol, but save 2 dollars if you need to....JR
