Best way to clean glass?

Once I used orange chronic, and then I made my own orange chronic by mixing alcohol, salt and GOJO mechanic soap (orange soap that has the smell of orange and the small little friction things). The thing is I couldnt getg my pieces that clean.

I need to clean the following:
Sidecar dry pipe
Sherlock Bubbler
Two Roor bongs

I dont lke the whole idea of using brushes. Someone said I should soak it in alcohol over night, and then rinse it with warm water till the alcohol smell is gone - what do you all think of that idea? What is everyones suggestions?

you could boil them, that works well with spoons and sherlocks, probably the side car as well, the bongs would be tough though.

when I worked at a restaraunt we had to clean the coffee stains out of the glass pots....we would put a couple tablespoons of salt in it with a bunch of ice cubes and swirl it around....worked like a charm...never tried it with a bong tho...

glass cleaning

I am an avid user of rubbing alcohol to remove resins. Soaking overnight is ideal, if you have time. Otherwise, soak your cleaning tools instead.....cotton swabs, pipecleaners, papertowels, etc...With a little 'elbow grease', the resin will disolve off. Follow with a vinegar rinse (which will clean the alcohol film off). Lastly, I wash in dishsoap and hot water, to remove some of the vinegar smell.

I think formula 420 is the way to go. It works well on all of my pieces. For smaller pieces I dilute it a bit with water, fill a small tupperware and let the piece soak over night. Works like a charm.

clean

I used the rub. alcohol in a big cup- soaked for 3 days and rinse w/ warm water- Brand new again. This piece was so dirty it was 100% full of resin-inoperable.

Another method

If you are looking for possible ways to clean your devices without leaving the house, you might try this method. Get some dishwasher detergent, like gel-style cascade and put in about a half a cup. Plug the downstem hole so when you fill it with water it wont overflow. Fill about half the tube up with water and shake it around a bit to get the detergent spread around. You don't need to fill all the way to the top with water since this part of the bong probably does not have resin on it. Finally leave the bong in this soaking condition overnight. You may want to swish it around once or twice during the soaking period. This should break up any resin that was on the wall of the tube. When the soaking is complete, dump it out and rinse it real good, preferably with some dishsoap afterwards. You should be good to go. This method is popular because the fact that these items are very commonly found in many households. Same with rubbing alcohol, but if you're like me, you've already used it all up. This is primarily an alternate method since I can always get my devices spotless by shaking rubbing alcohol with rock salt. I don't know if crystallized detrgent works or not, i have not tested it. Right now I am soaking a glass bowl in cascade, we will see how that turns out. Word.
