well mine is a super thick glass, personally made, but has colored art inside the glass. (i got a thread on it lmao) I remember dude sayin it had a coat on it and not to let alcohol sit on it for a long time and he told me about the making of it.

Just satyin to be on the safe side to not let it sit, not all glass has that coating of course, especially not the cheap stuff, but better safe than dead.

Cheers!

Ive heard of some people actually putting it in a pot with water and boiling it. But like everyone says just use atleast 90% alcohol with kosher salt. Kosher salt is more ridgid so it scrubs better. Then rinse with hot water for a good 3+ minutes, the longer the better.

And hey you stole my avatar! Hah

yea i seen that done, just have to put the pipe in when water is room temp, then bring up.

lol who stole ur avatar? i had this one for years

Only thing I do differently is submerge the ziplock bag with solution Ohio suggested, in hot water from the tap. This heats the iso/salt solution to hasten the cleaning and seems to breakdown the bigger clumps o' resin.

Hey Im new here but had to sign up to answer this because it made me laugh! Thats simply not true sorry! Like every one else said just use iso 99% and salt, seriously it is like magic for yor bong

So your saying that rinsing is not needed

You live in New England? Tell me. Have you ever had water leak through the middle (not from the seals) of an unbroken piece of glass? Even in a hurricane? Glass is non-porous. It can leave a residue which comes off with a rinse.

Nice tip! I was buying cleaner at the head shop like a sucker. Gonna clean my bong right now!

IF you are all about organic approaches (or otherwise do not have or want to use ISO) apple cider vinegar and rice also works for cleaning

Also a good tip. Thanks.
