Useable pipe cleaning liquids

[Sir Smokealot]

Just so u know somone said u could use acetone

Acetone is main ingredient in nail polish remover

[ndhawk]

What reason would there be if any to not use acetone?

[HarmoniX]

acetone is very poisonous to breath, its one of the ingredients when smoothing over wood and such.

after reading this thread yesterday i decided to clean my pipe ive had it for over a year and have only been scraping out the bowl once in a while. i took a freezer bag and pourd like 1/2 inch of rubbing alcohol and a teaspoon of salt heated in in the microwave for 10 seconds to get it very warm and place my pipe in the bag and ziped it shut and shook it for a few minutes, instantly the mixture turned dark brown. i did this 3 time and the pipe was totally clean, i then boiled it in pot of water and it lookes brand new. cause of the bag there was no mess and i didnt have to cover the carb, bowl and mouth piece.

aye, 91% rubbing alcohol + salt(kinda need alot) = clean peice in under an hour

All I do is take Rubbing Alcohol & heat it in a small tupperware container ( a throwaway ) in the microwave for about a minute. Take it out, and place a good amount of table salt in it. Toss in your piece & shake ( or you can let it sit ) and in 5 minutes, you piece is super clean. Rinse & dry well. Works with both glass & metal.

what about the resin? all your bong cleaning methods are good, but are me and my friends the only peole who scrape the resin to smear on joints and blunts or just to smoke in a bowl with some bud? just wondering, because that shit gets me lifted

[bowlsnapper2012]

umm if ur tryin to save resin put the pipe in a glass of water with the bowl at the bottom and throw it in the micro wave for like oh 45 seconds or however long it takes for ur piece o and the entire piece needs to be under water
