  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.
