How Do I Clean My Pipe or Bong

There’s nothing like smoking out of a clean, smooth, pipe or bong. Some people make a ritual out of cleaning their pipes and bongs daily while other like them more, let’s say, marinated. No matter how marinated you like it, you’ll still need to know how to clean a glass pipe or bong effectively sooner or later. The longer you wait before cleaning your pipe, the tougher it will be to clean. Below I’ll teach you how to make your own cleaning solution and at the end I’ll share with you a trick so you can smoke what you clean.

 

Pre-Cleaning

Good pre-cleaning will make rest of the process go quicker. If you can take apart your piece into smaller pieces, do so, and rinse off as much of the gunk of as you can. Hot water will help loosen the resin and you may also want to consider using a pipe cleaner, test tube cleaner, or Q-Tips. After rinsing your glass it’s time to get your cleaning solution ready.

 

Bong Cleaning Solutions

There are many commercial cleaning solutions out there such as Formula 420 but we recommend that you make your own since it’s so easy and cheaper. In order to be most effective, cleaning solutions should have both an abrasive and a solvent.

 

Abrasive

  • Rice
  • Epsom Salt
  • Sea Salt
  • Table Salt
  • Baking Soda

 

Solvents

  • Isopropyl Alcohol
  • Vinegar
  • Lemon Juice
  • Dish Soap
  • Water

 

Some websites suggest using household cleaners such as OxiClean or CLR. We recommend not using them to avoid inhaling harmful chemicals.

 

Soaking Your Bong

The easiest way of soaking your pipe/bong with the cleaning solution is to put it into a ziplock bag. After you add your cleaning solution you’re going to want to let it soak for at least 30 mins before shaking it. Continue shaking and swirling until all the gunk has come off your bong or pipe and has dissolved into the liquid.

 

Final Rinse

Now you’re going to want to rinse your pipe or bong with hot water. At this point some people like to stick it in the dishwasher or pot of boiling water to sanitize. I don’t think it isn’t necessary because the high heat from the boiling water may make the glass fragile and you don’t want your dishwasher smelling like weed or risk breaking the glass.

 

Congratulations! Now you know how to clean a glass pipe or bong and you can sit back and smoke a smooth bowl out of your freshly cleaned piece. If you just cleaned a water pipe, don’t forget to use Rez Block to prevent resin from sticking and to make future cleaning easier. Thanks for reading “How To Clean a Glass Pipe”.
