just boil up some water throw a little salt in the mix and put the pipe in there, use tongs to shake the pipe arround "this works on pipes and peices with alot of reson" sounds to me like your going to clean it alot more frecuently so i think some rubbing alcohal and a q tip will work just fine
Hey orange, the easiest way to clean a pipe completely, is simply soak it in oxy clean. No scrubbing, no shaking, just soak it in hot water and oxy clean. Thats what the guy at the headshop back home told me. I was trying to buy some of the formula 420 from them and he's like look man, save your 7 bucks and get a bottle of oxyclean, works just as good. And he was right.
For your pipe, you can soak it inside a baggie or in a bowl. Make sure to use hot water then rinse with hot water, and it should look like brand new.
Ok just one question. Using all this real chemical cleaner...if residue is left at the bottom of the bowl where it's not reachable is that healty if it gets heated?
With my pieces, I would always scrape them first and make a little ball, then boil them and take that resin, dry it, then combine it with the scraped resin. If you want to keep the resin so you can smoke it I wouldn't suggest the alcohol and salt technique, I would just boil it then dry the resin. Now that I think of it, I have a fat ball of resin somewhere. I have no clue where I hid it, so I'm assuming I did it when I was stoned because I can't even remember hiding it haha.
Ya I've tried boiling it a couple times. I think I didn't boil it long enough ause there was still resin left in the bottom of the bowl. Also boiling it will make your kitchen smell like resin. so if you are expecting your parents to come home soon i wouldnt boil it. Also with the chemical cleaners and stuff, they should work great just make sure to run a lot of hot water through your pipe afterwards to get the chemicals and shit out.
After you boil it, there will still be some resin it in, you just have to get a safety pin or something and get it. It will be really easy to get out, and when you'll get it out in huge clump, but you need to dry it afterwards and compact it into a ball so it will get a lot smaller than it first appears. Gets you stoned nonetheless.
how much did you buy that pipe for? it looks pretty cheap. i had a few of those twisty ones...they break so easily at the twisty part.
Oxy clean rinses right off if you run water through. I've always cleaned pipes this way, and never had a problem with it not rinsing out thoroughly.Quote:

just make sure nobody is home and get a pot with some water and set it to boil. if you dont want to get resin inside the pot, you can just fill up a glass with water and put your pipe inside that, and the glass inside the pot.
once you boil it for a while, youll still have some resin inside the pipe, but it will be very easy to just scrape off with your paper clip.
even tho im late in posting hope this helps
--- awesome piece by the way, that thing is a beast
You should just leave the pipe at home and bring the blunt wraps where you go :)
Just a suggestion :thumbsup:
