I use it to clean my hookah, and to clean my bowls (ever get that black burned on stuff thats hard to scrub off? it gets it clean!)Ive only used my funnel mod twice, but id bet money on this doing the trick.

clickhea Posted June 4, 2007 Author Share Posted June 4, 2007 yes it comes out spotless, you may have to scrape off loose shisha with your nail and then just run it under the sinki usualy let mine boil with the baking soda for at least 10 mins, pull it out see how it looks and if anything throw it back in for another 2 or 3 mins, and its spotless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3rooker Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 QUOTE (clickhea) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>how bout a hammerHAHAHAHA nice. How about drano? Just take some hot ass soapy water and a toothbrush too it. It's a waste of time to boil it IMO.TX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calcartman Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 i dont wanna smoke anything washed in drano. i agree boiling is a bit much, soaking in hot water+ baking soda should be plenty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calcartman Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 how about citric acid? ive used lemon juice plenty to clean my hookahs. less toxic too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
staygone Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 Hydrochloric acid sure burns my hands in lab, it probably would work wonders for the mod. Make sure it is above 6M though, that's the good stuff.Im going to try the baking soda thing on my phunnel, QM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nofrendo Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 Really, it's a preventative measure...Hey, next time you go to wash your hands, shoot yourself instead! then you won't even touch anything dirty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Boss Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 Just tried the baking soda. It cleaned the brown, baked on crud of my Pyrex bowl spectacularly but it didn't really clean my scalli mod very much. It also got my stem and tray nice and shiny. I'll give the scalli mod another soak in another hour or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clickhea Posted June 5, 2007 Author Share Posted June 5, 2007 i tried soaking it in hot water with baking soda and i got better results when i kept it in the boiling water with the baking soda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scalliwag Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 QUOTE (poopooshaboo @ Jun 4 2007, 10:07 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Any good hose cleaning ideas?I take an old guitar string and a pipe cleaner. Fold the pipe cleaner in half and twist the guitar string around it leaving the tail end facing down so it does not try to puncture the hose when you pull it through.Then I run the string through the hose and pull the vodka soaked pipe cleanr through a few times. Seems to work for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
