Hey-

I have one of these bongs. The one with the bubble on it. The only real problem I have with it is the big gay blue lettering that says "GEAR". What can I use to get rid of the letters?

I don't know how you'd get that off without damaging the bong itself. I would suggest gently scraping it off then using some Iso or Paint thinner, but that might scratch it.

I would judt get a different sticker and place it over top of the letter GEAR. Get a Bob Marely sticker or something and just cover it.

If you're going to be that picky about it ;) the only thing left to do is to buy some paint stripper. Strong stuff so be careful with it. That is the only thing left to do.

If you wanted a really nice glass bong for long term use, maybe you should have bought something that you were 100% happy with. Just a thought.

hey...can i be a mod??? pretty please???

nah...too much responsability...

try using paint thinner and a razor blade...no, not on your eye you silly goose, on the BONG...or just cover it up with a sticker...i mean, its better then having GEAR...

man i dont think you want paint stripper in your bong, either try and scratch off the paint without scratching the glass or leave it as is

No but I'm cleaning it today and I'm gonna give it hell as soon as all the resin is outta there.

By the way, what's with the small writing?

I first thought this was a thread where somebody though putting paint instead of water in the bong would be a smart idea.

REMEMBER KIDS.

Only do that if I don't like you. And then tell me what happens.

It won't go IN his bong, it will only touch the outside of the bong. Duh! :rasta:

glass doesnt get scratched so u can even use a sander. or just some paint thinner would definately work

For the love of god don't listen to this! Glass is scratched easily, and doing so will weaken the structure of the bong. My advice: learn to live with it.

My god, whoever thought a stoner would be this dumb huh? :(

Yes, glass scratches. Go take a sander to your window, tell me if it doesn't scratch. Judging by your quote, it shows you know a lot of fuck all, shit.

I believe you are correct, sir. I really gave it hell yesterday after I cleaned it, and I made no progress.

And to whoever said I should have made sure to be 100% happy with it before buying,... I would be 100% happy with it, if not for the big gay blue letters...

And the website gave me a discount on it, that's why I picked it up.
