Iso + Salt + elbow grease. Or Grunge off(more expensive) and Simple Green(cheaper I personally do not like simple green)
I actually find cleaning bowls and downstems a pain in the ass with ISO, so I just put them on the stove for like 30 minutes and then just rinse it with salt + water to clean out the ash. Looks brand new
Cleaning my ben wilson DD slide is easy, idc about it being black, and i think completely cleaning it is a waste of grungeoff. But i just get a paper clip, get all the resin out of the bottom, then use another paper clip and put it through each slit.
zip lock pour iso mix some salt put bowl, slide , whatever in the mixture and shake and it will be clean. could use the search button... i belive i answered this question 4 times in a day and a half
run it under some water and use a q-tip to get in the places it didnt come off. Salt isant going to do anything for cleaning unless you have a bong! Be careful tho, when I did this in college a few years back it made my whole dorm smell
Yeah, that's why people use the salt, speeds things up a lot. I was searching around for something the other day, checking out a bunch of different online uh head shops, I guess. And there was some kind of a "helpful" tip on one page about cleaning glass pieces. It said not to use iso, but instead to use fingernail polish remover. Because it smells better! I just said, out loud, what the fuck? and went about my search to some other site, but that seems like shitty advice to me. Anyone actually do that?
Personally I think nail polish remover smells absolutely awful, but it does work just as well as iso.
Yeah, I just can't wrap my head around the idea that, apparently to some people, iso smells worse than nail polish remover(npr). And the tip wasn't worded like some people may prefer the fumes from the remover to the iso fumes but as if it was just a fact that the npr smelled better. Still seems like shitty advice to me, though I understand that they will both clean the piece.
