Ok like I have a very resinated pipe and I love this pipe and I want to go traveling with it and soon I will be on a plane. Anyways I was thinking if I clean all the resin out with alcohol and let it sit in rubbing alchol for one night and then I wash it out with soap and then I let it sit in very hot water for awhile and then let it sit in mouth wash for one night and then wash it out with alcohol again and then rinse.... would any dog be able to smell my pipe still? can dogs even smell the cannabis tar anyways? and its a international flight going to the USA but would there be any problems if I put in my my main luggege? and the same thing for my metal grinder...

your chances of running into a NARC dog is slim. if there's no residue in the pipe, you can take it wherever you please. honestly, if i got it good and clean, i wouldn't worry about it at all.

not sure bro...go buy a cheap pipe..new and never used..tobacco pipe my friend :D you can buy it, you can have it. as long as it doesn't have residue, it's not drug paraphernalia..

as for after you've cleaned it...it would have to be ENTIRELY clean of marijuana residue..honestly I wouldn't risk it...buy a cheapie.

yeah...thinking about it more thoroughly...glass wouldn't be caught by the x-ray machine or metal detector...clean it good though, don't want to run into drug dog.

just get it nice and clean as to where if they inspect it ( like pick it up and look at it ) they would believe it hasnt been used. make sure to get rid of the smell that can be a giveaway.

if there's anything...absolutely ANYTHING that is related to drugs..it's drug paraphernalia..it's not worth the risk...just go buy a new one to take with you..it's much better than sitting in jail.

answering your question more clearly...yes. anything at all..if it has resin, it's a drug pipe..if it's clean, it's the same as it was legally sold as...a tobacco pipe.

I brought a pipe I smoked out of back from Mexico. I cleaned it up and stuff it deep into the bags I checked. Worked like a charm :rastasmoke:

If your over 18, and you cleaned it to the MAX! Then you should have no worries. At all. The worst they can do is take it away. Like I said as long as it looks brand new then dont worry about it. Ive brought one back from Thailand. But do try and hide it.

If you really are that attached to it and you are worried about getting caught (which I would be with a highly resonated pipe, as its hard to get them sparkling again) then just ship it. It may cost a lot, but if you care about the pipe that much, wouldn't you rather pay with money then with your freedom?

I have experience too; bought 2 glass spoon at Blunt Brothers in Vancouver a couple years ago and left them in the sack, unused with receipt and put into my carry-on bag. I got to customs and they were confiscated for being against the "paraphenalia laws" and I was sent on my way with a note explaining what I do if I want to lodge a complaint. IOW, fuck you and here's a dime to call someone who cares.

Ive had cannabis flakes all over the inside of my bag when the hash puppies came by in new zealand. Dogs are amazing at picking up smells but I sincerley doubt theyd even find a well resinated pipe, amongst all the other airport smells

Sure. You probably still want to clean it somewhat, just so it doesn't stink everywhere it goes. I had to do this recently with a pipe I bought during spring break, and it was mildly dirty and I didn't have any problems. Granted, that was entirely in the U.S. and it sounds like your coming from out of the country, but it would still probably be fine.

you could, but do you want to risk loosing your favorite pipe just to use it someplace else?

i would clean it very good, put it in your luggege maybe toss a pouch of tobbaco (for show) and be on your way, yeah, either that or ship it,
