like I said Nacycree try WD40 rinsed with hot..or warm soapy water if the glass is delicate which it shouldn't be as most are required to withstand direct heat, so hot water should be OK''' I wouldn't boil it..as a may crack.. from hitting the pot not from the heat
Yeah I was going to put it in one of those metal strainers like you deep fry fries in. That way it wouldn't tumble around in the boiling water. But WD40? I hate that stuff it stinks so bad. But if it works...it works I guess. How do I scrape the reisen though? The bowl doesn't come off of the pipe. It just has a small hole in the bottom...and the end of the pipe has a small hole as well. The only thing i can get down in either one is a q tip. So what would I use to scrape the reisen?
To collect the resin I use a blade.. or scalpel I know I hate the smell myself but it works ..pure alcohol works as well but is not as easily accessible as WD40 you can visit my wed site WWW.duppy.wd40.co.uk only kiddin...peace and all..
i won't ever "scrape" a glass bowl, they are fragile.
HOT tap water loosens the resin and if you hold the carb covered and blow on the bowl, the resin comes shooting out and it's still good to smoke (if you like resin hits.) Use bristled pipecleaners to loosen the stubborn resin. Voila.
alcohol and a blade will do!
Just so you know, boiling WILL stink up your entire kitchen, so if you live with you parents (I don't know if you do, but I am just warning you anyway) they will be able to smell it. So you may not want to boil.Quote:

To scrape the bowl, I just use a paper clip. I use the rounded end and scrape upward from the hole to the rim. The rounded part gives a nice shovel effect. Be careful, however, not to break your bowl. This is why you should scrape upward, so you are not going towards the bowl.

Something is right, use rubbing alcohol and a q-tip and scrub, then run it under water and dry it with a soft dishtowel and let it sit for a while.
