Cleaning Percs

[govegan]

Microwave trick is the shit but i blame that on a broken perc so i would really only recommend it for thick glass

[eastghost]

really? i never heard of anything like that, it would seem to me that borosilicate glass should easily withstand the boiling temperature of alcohol (82.3 Degrees C, 180.14 degrees F). what kind of tube was it?

[johnnyballbag]

If you're going to boil ISO, maybe you should run hot water through it for a while before you do. Only reason i'd see one breaking is due to a temp change.

It was a Roor, a US Roor, but Roor none the less. I run hot water through it, ten salt and iso first, then rinse, then boiling iso, I didn't see it break, but I cleaned it put it away took it out the next day.... broken perc. shitty shit son

I hope you didn't shake it around too much^^

to get the iso warm just put it in a bottle and run the bottom part of the bottle (where the iso is) thru hot water...the heat transfers into the bottle and its below boiling temps...there ya go problem solved


also..fuck iso and all that bullshit...white vinegar DOES make you shit sparkle..but fuck all these solvents and get Grunge Off...no more dealing with bullshit solvents

[govegan]

I've also dug on ISO/Salt until I came across Grunge Off, shits awesome. I need some of the Super Soaker, they only have the powder grunge off at the headshop near me, but that shit is still awesome. Why would shaking fuck up a perc? I kinda figured if it was all one piece there is nothing for the perc to smash into and what not

THere are some crazy bath salts that work magic with 90%+ iso

pick them up at bed bath and beyond or a soap store, they're really big and from the ocean and work way better than table salt

grunge off super soak beats all those other solvent based bullshit cleaners. Just try the shit and you will see for yourself that iso and salt and vinegar are cleaners of the past. Wise up people and listen to your peers. They are telling you what works!

i didnt bother even reading this whole thread .. so sorry if sumone else has already said this ...

But the best thing to do .. IS NOT LET YOUR PERCS GET THAT DIRTY !!!!!!
ALWAYS KEEP YOUR GLASS LOOKING BRAND NEW, then youll never have the problem of dirty scum blacky shit that permanitly will be there

heard they can scratch your tube. Dont use anything but table salts. Although, i dont know from personal experience, but i aint risking it.
