    No, i like to keep it soaked with resin so when i run out i can take hella resin hits

    yes, a clean bong is a happy bong.

    besides, why spend the money if you're not going to take care of it

    EDIT: I do let my bowl get some resin build-up, but the glass changes color so it doesn't look like shit. I clean it when it tastes shitty

    Cleaning it every time weakens the glass, especially with iso and salt, water is prob fine though

    how does alcohol/salt/cleaning weaken the glass?

    Lol, it doesn't at all.. Only thing that weakens your glass is extreme and quick temperature changes, and hitting it with heavy objects/dropping it. There's a reason glass is used for chemistry, most solutions including iso don't eat away at it.

    yea i was confused as hell because my bong is a couple years old and looks brand new when I clean it and i never notice any scratches or anything

    Thats PYREX Glass, most pipes dont contain it except for a few brands

    Yes. Idc what people say about it weakening the glass. None of my bongs have fallen apart yet from ISO and salt.

    When I first started smoking id never clean my bong. I mean never. I wouldnt even change the water wxcept for a few times a month. Finally I got so grossed out I make it a habit to change the water before every sesh, and I douche it in salt and iso at least 2 times a week.

    There is nothing better than a fresh sack of dank smoked out of freshly cleaned glass.
