how do i clean my bowl?

[Reefer Rogue]

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

I miss duppy man =[

In my opinion, Cleaning the bowl becomes much more difficult if you let it go too long. I thoroughly clean my bowl every night i smoke. I have found that if you run very hot tap water through the bowl, it helps melt the junk off the inside and all the surfaces inside. I used alcohol and a q-tip and just scrubbed the whole outside, and then for the inside i ran hot water. I hear you can also use salt, hot water, and "Goo-Gone"- the chemical solution they sell like at every home depot or hardware store. and it will work better then magic. also, you can boil it briefly, and then use soap and scrub it, its pretty easy, you will find what works best for your bowl. But when boiling, remember glass does shatter when it goes from one temperature to another quickly, so dont take it out of the boiling hot water and then run it under cool water. it will break, no matter how thick. so if u take it out of hot water, run it under hot water, and slowly cool down the water, to allow it to adjust to the temperature. anyways, good luck! and btw i wouldnt advise smoking the resin that you gather, especially after running soap and stuff on it. its just tar and crap.

Dont ever boil a glass pipe,you will weaken the temper of the glass, Just use 91% rubbing alcohol in a ziplock bag. take care of yer pipes and they will take care of you.

I just go for the strongest rubbing alcohol available and some salt, for a glass pipe anyways. Pipe cleaners aren't just for arts and crafts anymore, especially with a sherlock.
