I recently got a new sherlock pipe and I've been using it a lot and the resin is really starting to build up now. What's the best/easiest way to clean it?
Thanks...

Their website sucks ass Winner "Best Product" - waterpipe cleaner tool, The Original Buddy is a revolutionary cleaning tool for use with any liquid cleaner (Dr. Green's, Orange chronic, Formula 420, Purple Power, Grunge Off, Super Blue, etc.)
However..I bought one at my local smoke shop for 8$. It comes with a big one and a really tiny one for pipes. It totally rocks and it's easy to use and it's cheap! That is if you want a super clean piece...
i cant see the pics on that site bro :confused:
Denatured alcohol and kosher salt - and don't wait 2 years between cleanings! ;) Don't waste time or money with the specialized cleaners or the bong buddy or any of that crap
thank you all very much...
boiling a single blown spoon would be safe right?

depends, if you wana get rid of the resin and not smoke it, the best way is alcohol/salt as it will eat away every last little bit.... but if you wanna save it, i have a sticky up above.
Hey bong buddy is cool, don't diss it!
lmao, I had one pipe that I didn't clean for about a year. It had so much resin, you could light up an empty bowl and get a huge hit of resin everytime. One day, I had an epiphany and cleaned it.Quote:

lol, it tastes like complete shit. But hey if I was running low and wanted to save some, I turned to my bowl.
Mine was never completely cleaned! I did everything from isopropanol/salt solution, brushes, boiled it. Some of the resin is completely stuck forever.

You mix the salt and alcohol and soak the pipe in it then rinse.

For like 99 cents you can get a 16 oz bottle of 91% rubbing alcohol...Quote:

i've seen quite a few people here that admit resin will get you high... and it will... it actually works very well for getting you high...
the only real negative side (if you take out possible health side effects) is the taste... that taste is horrible...
I honestly need to clean my pipe my self lol. It's very resinated now :(. I haven't had a clean hit since like the first few months that I bought the thing haha.
Duuuude, I just cleaned my bong and pipe with 91% isopropyl alcohol and pipe cleaners and it worked beautifully. I read on here to use salt too, but I had forgotten about that and it still worked great. I dipped the pipe cleaner in the alcohol and used it to rub the build up off, it worked great. Just pour a tiny bit in before using the pipe cleaner
hahaha i havnt cleaned my glass piece since i got it...almost 2 years ago lmao same tihng id even have to load a bowl its so resinated
