NoPeace Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 even tho i bought my new hookah already i decided to do an unbelievably thorough cleaning of my hookah. i spent 2 hours last night with a bottle of extra strength lime juice and baking soda cleaning my stem and guess what. all this weird blue shit started coming out...... hmmmm. like im not a chemist but i dont think brass or stainless steel has a bi product of blue..... anyways im gonna try it out real quick and see if my two hours of scrubbing has done anything.

shoresidejake Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 it's probably just built up juice stains Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhishPhood Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 Juice would make it red, not blue. Atleast in the experience I have I've never seen blue come off of my shisha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dom Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 one of my grommets for my hose port on my glass mya is blue from the smoke or whatever. in fact, it doen'st come off. and i havn't let anything touch it that would make it blue like that. i thought it was odd, too, but it hasn't given me any problems, i don't think.

Codename067 Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 The worst I get is Green color from the gunk. Never seen blue though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaia.plateau Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 What is the hookah in question?Red liquid comes from shisha, Green comes from brass oxidization... I can't even imagine how you could get blue liquid in a waterpipe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r1v3th3ad Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 Is it a chameleon blown glass base? The color could be coming from the chemicals in the glass if so...also it could just be coming from the dyes used in general to make different colors. I've seen blue with baking soda before, I just can't remember what, I think it was when I nuetralized some sort of acid...maybe it was that over cleaner that burnt the shit outta me this past summer at work...
