Categories How do i clean a bong?
According to our experience every smoker wants a clean, tasteless bong without having the feeling to press the remains of the last half year into the tortured lung at the same time with every draught. In the following we therefore briefly present
the most important cleaning utensils.
Cleaning agent
- Be sure to use a mild cleaning agent! In addition to possible damage to the bong, a harsh cleaning agent can also have harmful effects on your health the next time you use it!
- No matter whether you use a special bong cleaning agent such as the biological cleaner Limpuro or a classic household detergent such as denture cleaner, always make sure to rinse the bong thoroughly with clear water after cleaning to remove residues.
- Make sure that the cleaning agent used matches your bong. Acrylic pipes and especially bongs made of bamboo are allergic to some cleaning agents.
Cleaning Brushes
- brushes: It is recommended to use brushes made of synthetic material as they are more durable and do not absorb the smell of the bong as strongly. Cheap brushes made of natural material often have to be disposed of after 1-2 cleaning processes, especially with heavily soiled bongs.
- Meanwhile there are brushes in different special forms suitable for belly bongs, especially long necks and the like. Same applies to the brushes for the cleaning of Chillum and headchen. Think before the purchase of the brush therefore well which form fits to the selected Bong.
- An alternative to brushes represents at least with Chillums the use of pipe cleaners. These also have the advantage that they can be disposed of after use.
Other cleaning accessories
- Meanwhile there are apart from cleaning agents also water additives which should help to prevent the Verschmanden of the Bong. Depending upon manufacturer they fulfill this task more or less well. It is important to pay attention to the fact that no harmful substances are taken up with the smoking process.
- Besides brushes also a classical pipe cleaner from metal can be a proven means for the provisional intermediate cleaning of the bong. It is therefore recommended to have such one within reach and to avoid blockages and the like.
- Also regular changing or at least cleaning of the sieves is recommended. Due to the fine grating, they get dirty very quickly and can thus reduce the enjoyment of smoking.
