How do I clean my
glass pipe?

Many people like to keep their
glass pieces relatively clean, or enjoy reaping the
benefits of scraping their bowels for resin to smoke. I
can scrape my bowel pretty clean, but there is only so
much you can get out. The end result is usually a pipe
that wont look right until you get more resin in it to
give it back its color. And every time you do this it
gets harder to scrape clean because of the old stuff
hardening.
If you follow this technique you can
get your pipe as clean as it was the day you bought it
every time, plus it will always be easier to scrape your
pipe the next time.
Scrape your pipe as cleanly as you want, or not at
all, some people don't enjoy smoking their resin so they
can skip this step.
Fill your pipe with a teaspoon or two of salt,
depending on pipe size. You can use regular table salt,
sea salt (preferred) or rock salt.
Plug the head of your bowel with your finger or
thumb, and pour rubbing alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, into
the mouthpiece of your pipe.
Cover the mouthpiece with another finger or thumb
and shake the pipe up and down vigorously but carefully,
for a few minutes.
Dump out the waste and rinse thoroughly with tap
water.
Repeat if needed until pipe is sparkling clean.
