Cleaning a DIRTY DIRTY BONG

  1. Hi everyone, I am currently in the process of cleaning this dirty thang. It literally had like a mineral like buildup inside the pipe. It almost looked like little rocks were attached to the inner wall of this thing's bubbler.
    I took a picture but you cant really see the inside of the bong as the outside is so cloudy. Usually what i do is i smoke out of it and then just leave it under the sink until i use it again, When i do use it again i put it into the tub and turn on hottest water and let it get all the major gunk out and that's it. I might add a little dish soap to the bong to aid in gunk removal. I don't think it has been cleaned for maybe 1 year or more. Don't ask me why i took so long, anyways i let this thing soak in 91% iso and salt for maybe a day 1 1/2 and i would occasionally shake it every once in awhile as well. The iso got rid of 95% of everything. There is this brown film on my piece that is really trouble. If i had one of those bong brushes it would make it a lot easier. I have been letting it soak in mean green concentrate (SIMPLE GREEN CLONE) for a few hours but it's still not coming off. My question is if i let this soak for a few days will it go away naturally? Thanks. 0204200325.jpg 0201200014.jpg
     
  2. I might just have to use that wd-40 for this thing. It's worth a try.
     
  3. I don't have an answer to your question,

    and I'm sure you probably know this already but, if you change the water once a day and give it a rinse with alcohol and salt once every week or two, you will keep the piece looking literally brand new.

    :sick:

    good luck

    edit: I personally would NOT use WD-40. (Iso and Salt has always worked for me)

    That would get kinda expensive wouldn't it? Thanks. Off topic question but can someone tell me the quality of this glass of possible. It took a few hard hits and never even scratched. If i remember i bought it at wild bills for like 75-100 dollars. Btw this forum was made for stoners lol, no bs mod has to approve posts, no 10 post limit till you can post a thread for new members. No restrictions. I like this forum already. I definitely will not let it get this bad again. I think i waited so long because i used to smoke with my buds when it was dirty so i almost didn't want to clean the memories weird yes. I also knew it would be a several day process of soaking it. DON'T EVER LET YOUR PIECE GET THIS DIRTY. I will take jkill's advice.

  6. Yea that is fine but i notice on a lot of other forums the mods run the forum like nazi germany and then they claim, they act like that to deter spam. It's more of a way for them to feel powerful by controlling rather than spam.

  7. No. water is free.

    and Rubbing alcohol/salt is cheap as fuck. and if you do it once a week you will have to use next to no alcohol at all.

  9. Acetone! Go to a hardware store and purchase a small thing of acetone! It will clean that thing like no other. I only use it for deep cleans like this and then I prefer just maintaining and cleaning it once a week so it doesn't get that bad again!
