Where would one get isopropyl, and are you sure this method would work on this particular type of paint-job? Its almost like a thin layer of plastic coated over glass, a piece of shit, but the pipe works.

Kroger. 75 cents a bottle. Epsom salt is a dollar I think.
Dude, they know what "purposes" it's being used for. Who smokes tobacco out of a PIPE?
Edit: When I was in Israel this dude was hitting tobacco out of a homemade bong. So nevermind.
I had this same thing happen to me. I bought a pipe from a friend that had been used before, and the shaft was blue. When I cleaned it out a few months later, the paint/resin started to peel off. I just used some 90% isopropyl alcohol to soak it for about an hour, and then I was good to go.
I just use regular table salt and rubing alochol it works just as good.
How competely shit. I'd tear the shop up if they ripped me off like that, no matter what the price.
What a crappy pipe. I didn't know they'd actually paint the glass. I have bought and still own cheap $10 glass spoons, and they don't have paint.
Find a new headshop...ditch that glass, and buy some good glass from a good store/company.
Yea, it does blow, I think I'll try that rubbing alcohol salt method soon though, I guess I should be thankful that it isn't broke, my only complaint that REALLY bothers me is the size of the bowl, I can pack MAYBE .3 or .4 in it, not to mention if I pack that much in it, it usually means I'm compressing it and plugging up the hole, next time I buy a piece, I'm going with a friend of mine whos a pro.
That and its a little-to top heavy and the bowl heats up pretty quickly..
Even so, technically it's still supposed to be used for tobacco so if they see that it's being used for herb they can tell you to fuck off. Although, if you clean it before you take it in, it shouldn't be a problem. They can't prove it.Quote:
