Ideas for cleaning bowl screens?

Discussion in 'Bongs, Dab Rigs, Bubblers, Water Pipes' started by Kannabosm, Oct 19, 2019.

  1. I have some very heavy duty bowl screens, some brass some ss. I have tried heating them with a torch to burn away the gunk but I have found that just makes the screen brittle and they break soon afterwards.
    I have scraped the ash/carbon/un-burned resin away but they are still nasty. I have heard about ppl soaking them in Acetone, not sure what to try. Anyone find anything safe and easy that works? Thanks, k

  2. Seriously?
    Just buy new ones
    Or better yet, start using glass jack screens or the little flower shaped ones. I honestly don’t smoke glass anymore unless I have barley any flower or I’m doing dabs. The flavor of flower through a bowl is nowhere near as flavorful as smoked in a joint.

  3. There not really worth cleaning when you can buy them cheap online dude, they're more of a disposable thing then something you clean & reuse..

    I buy 50 screens at a time on eBay & they cost me £1.25 which works out 3p per screen :toke: so it isn't really worth cleaning them to save 3p imo :confused_2:

  4. Isopropyl alcohol, CLR, or like said just buy new ones. I smoke out of glass pipes and dont use screens in any of them.

  5. The flavour of flower in a joint is nowhere near that of a dry herb vape.
     
  6. Just buy new ones man. I can pick up a decent pack of them at a local headshop here for about 0.50¢ but if you are looking for screens that are easy to clean and be reused try glass screens (which work best for glass pipes, bongs and downstems) and you can just place it in a baggie when you are washing your pipes and downstems with ISO alcohol and sea salt.

  7. I’m more a fan of bold sesquiterpenes which are more pronounced at higher temps / with combustion so I disagree. It depends on the flower but I’m really not a fan of vaping flower. Only vaping dabs on a rig

  8. Those screens are cheap just buy more. Get some glass screens if you want to clean them.

  9. You don't buy screens of this quality on eBay for $2 US, you buy junk from China. If you had no ideas, why even reply? k
     
  10. ;)
     
  11. Lol I can reply to anything I want.. if you want to talk about cheap take a look in the mirror dude.. you want to wash screens that literally don't cost alot:lmafoe::lmafoe::lmafoe::lmafoe::lmafoe:

    There the same screens that every other headshop online sells.. except the headshops want £1 for 5 :laughing:

    Also don't say "K" to me you sound like a child.. then again you probably are if you're too cheap to actually spend some money on new screens lol.
     
  12. I'm not the only one here telling you you're a cheap ass for wanting to clean them lol, why didn't you have a pop at any 1 else who said buy some more?????:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:
     

  13. Is that it? IS that all you have, some silly little characters. If there is more, keep it coming, but try harder. And if you were paying attention you would have noticed that is my signature, K.
     
  14. Thanks for the help......
     
  15. soak them in a high percentage iso. But i would get glass ones they are nicer and not that pricey.
     
  16. I buy them in packs of 200 for 10$ on amazon.

    definitely NOT worth cleaning and reusing them Imo

  17. Get a sonic cleaner if you really want them clean!

    Nothing like a 300$ apparatus, to clean a <$1 screen. :bang:
