I use an exacto blade and the strongest isopropyl alchohol and when I scrape I scrape off in a bowl with good bud hell of a bong hit

Razor blade to scrape the hash off, then smoke it .

And then place the scissors in a glass or jar of ISO - in 15 minutes the stuff will wipe right off.

Pro tip: Have several pairs soaking while you work with clean ones - you'll thank yourself.

Rubbing alcohol worked like a charm. no soaking necessary. thanks!

Any type of spray oil, like Pam, works great, especially for cleaning hands and fingers.

I have always just scraped them with a razor blade, but on my recent Trainwreck harvest the buds were to sticky and I couldn't keep up, so I put down the scissors and started plucking. The buds came out looking better than the scissor trimmed buds. I am interested in seeing how well plucking works on less dense buds. Ive got a Super Lemon Haze coming down in about three weeks, so we will see.

I use a razor blade to clean my scissors. I use a razor blade to clean my fingers too. One time I cut off a little piece of my finger. The piece of finger was covered in resin so I smoked it. I didn't care for the taste. I use alcohol to finish cleaning after scraping my scissors and fingers but I wouldn't advise using it on your fingers if you just cut a hunk out of it with a razor blade.

alcohol. If you make QWISO hash just swirl the scissors in with the mix. Or a Q-tip soaked in alocohol

razor blades use new one for every scrape so you'll need 10-20 through out trimming get a box of 100 for like 3 bucks at harbor frieght and tools or any place like home depot or lowes
