4 Easy Steps to Clean Your Bong, Dab Rig, or Glass Pipe 

The last thing you want to happen when taking a hit from your glass pipe is to be greeted by an unpleasant taste or smell. While this does not happen too often, it can be a real problem for those who do not take the time to clean their pipes.

Fortunately, glass pipes are relatively easy to clean, but this does not mean they are immune to dirt. They still need some maintenance to offer the perfect hit, so if you want to know how you can clean your glass pipe or dab rig, you are in the right place!

Today, we will talk about what you should do to clean your glass pipe, but the same techniques can apply to bongs, dab rigs, and the like.

Step 1. Get the things you need

First, you will need a few things to clean your tools. For this technique, you will need some Q-tips, paper towels, a resealable bag, some salt, dishwashing liquid, and isopropyl alcohol. Note that if you do not have a resealable bag, a bowl or any similar container will do. This is because you will use it to hold any loose parts while you clean. 

Step 2. Disassemble the small parts

Make sure that the pipe or whatever you are cleaning is empty. You would not want to get dirt everywhere or make a huge mess. Once done, remove any small parts and leave them in the bowl or resealable bag. You will clean them separately from the main piece for more effective cleaning.

Step 3. Pour in the solutions

Once everything is separated, pour a bit of salt, approximately three tablespoons of isopropyl alcohol, and a drop of dishwashing liquid into the pipe. Cover any openings and give everything a good shake.

As for the items in the bowl or resealable bag, put the same mixture into them and give them a good stir. The idea is to cover as many parts as possible with the solution, allowing it to clean off any residue and dirt. Use the Q-tips to scrub any hard-to-reach places if there are any stubborn stains and residue.

Step 4. Rinse and dry them

Once everything is well-covered with the solution, rinse all the parts with some warm water. This includes running water through the glass pipe or whatever it is you are cleaning to thoroughly get rid of the solution. After that, dry off any excess liquid with a towel and lay the parts down on another paper towel to let them dry. Only assemble them after they are completely dry to prevent mold growth and corrosion.

Conclusion

Now that your glass pipe, bong, or dab rig is spotless, remember to keep it somewhere clean when not in use. The next time you take a hit, give yourself a pat on your back and enjoy the experience. No longer will you have to worry about weird or funky tastes and smells from a dirty rig; you can enjoy a satisfying hit that will promise you a good time.
