Ok, so how do I clean my pot pipe?

I think I’m probably wasting some flakes, from pipe, and it’s sticky…..how do I clean the pipe so it’s like the day I bought it.

1. Isopropyl alcohol

3. Ummmmm what kind of alcohol???

4. Vodka and Everclear work in a pinch.

Alcohol dissolves resin. ISO works best but any high proof does the job.

2. 90% isopropyl alcohol with some epsom salts

5. I use Acetone.

And then follow it with rubbing alcohol. No matter what you use, you will still need to do some scraping. That resin is just one tough residue.

6. I use Formula 420

Which one to use depends on the material the pipe is made of (glass, plastic, etc.)

8. Glass, it's made of glass......

7. I forgot.....I know this...nope, can't remember.
