I got two small bowls and I was wondering what is the best way to clean them. One is a bubbler and the other is a sherlock bowl pipe.

Like anything... KOSHER or SEA SALT or UNCOOKED RICE and 90%+ RUBBING ALCOHOL. Works on any smoking device.

Just mix, cover the bowl and carb or however and poor in. Also you can toss it all into a zip loc and shake it up. The salt or rice acts as an abrasive and the alcohol softens the residue. Afterwards rinse with hot water.

Yes I use 99% rubbing alcohol in my pipes and smoke devices. Put a few ounces of rubbing alcohol and add some sugar, or salt to act as an abrasive, then cover all open holes and shake the living daylights out of the pipe. Rinse well with cold water and then......blaze. Works every time (:

only thing is make sure to rinse off that alcohol good and do not leave it to soak because the coating on your glass can turn toxic if left like that.
I just rinse with warm/hot water while pouring and shaking alcohol & salt through it. 10 minutes.

I do what O says, and I make sure it's rinsed real well. I'll rinse for a solid 5 minutes to make sure no alcohol sticks around to impart any taste or smell.

Um, unless the glass is porous, soaking in alcohol will have no affect other than removing gunk.

I don't know of any coatings used on glass pipes well except I've seen some cheap glass pipes that are painted. Still I don't know of any permanent coatings.
