shisha fan Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 i came across this hookah at a local store and since it was only 25 euros i decided to pick it up.the pipe is 41 inches tall and made of brass.its by far the best pipe i`ve ever smoked, but i don`t like the little ornaments attached to the ashtray.

Snoopy1966 Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 Wow, that is really sweet. I like the dangly chains on that! If you do not want them I will buy them form you. It adds a touch of class imo. I really like that Hookah. A different piece then most has. Metal Polish I do not really know. I think Brasso would work good. There is this stuff you get in a can and it has cotton in it, you pull out a chunk and use it polish many kinds of metals, the stuff works great but the name eludes me right now.

EternalSoil Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 not sure exactly....i don't even know why i know this...looked it up and its the vinegar and salt in there and people also said to just use about 1:1 salt vinegar mix.either of these should work great...i would say be gentle a bit cause i dont know if the salt would scratch it.toothpaste also (works on scratched up CD's too cause it has some tiny abrasives in it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waterboi Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 That is def a pretty hookah. looks good. Yea some good brass cleaner on that thing will just make it look so much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leadpipecinch21 Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 sweet looking hookah dude...i'm sure it smokes like a champ.for cleaning it, one more to the brasso. i use it every couple months on my hookah...cleans it up so nice, but be aware that the brass goes back to being dull very quickly...2 weeks or less. still looks nice as hell all cleaned up.

EternalSoil Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 with brass you dont need to use cleaners everytime...you can just use a cloth, like the microfiber ones and polish it to bring the sine back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SimplexCoda Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 That thing is beautiful. You say it smokes great? Nice. It's win-win then. I personally like the dangly things, makes it look even more legit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voski Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 Looks really good! My friends dad has one that looks like it minus the dangly things. I can vouch for how good it smokes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shisha fan Posted March 10, 2008 Author Share Posted March 10, 2008 any alternatives for brasso? i can`t find the stuff over here.i put another base on the hookah that i think looks better on it, now i only need a green phunnel and nammor/razan hose. what do you guys think?

Stinkyfisherman Posted March 10, 2008 Share Posted March 10, 2008 (edited) Yea I like the green base better it seems to fit the flow. I'd say Brasso too but if you cant get it just try looking up an alternative somewhere on the web, im sure its out there.

I'm with Snoopy, the dangly things are sweet.thanks. the owner probably didn`t have a clue about what he had on his hands. 25 euros is about 39 us and canadian dollars at the current exchange rates, so i guess it was my lucky day.
