chromecarz00 Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 Just a tip, before starting with any cleaning supplies (lemon juice, vinegar, etc) take a garden hose and blast it through the stem and the hose, make sure you use the jet attachment and get the entire stem (for the inside of course) and then scrub and repeat...makes the rest of the cleaning that much easier.

[Elmo] Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 Probably only a good idea if your 100% your hoses are washable... I did this for a while with my old hose, and within a month it was rusted out. Works good for the stem though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Works good for the stem though.My traditonal hose that I got with my hookah is already giving me rubbish stuff in my mouth and it hasn't had one bit of water in it, in the 7 weeks that I have owned it......Probably going to use the handles of it to attach to vinyl tubing and get a new hose that way-H&S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ceraziefish Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 I have some cobra hoses that used to give you crap, but... they don't anymore? It's weird. A few months back, whenever I would smoke out of them, I'd get little black specks and things like that. But, then I didn't use them for a few weeks and they're good as new. Weird.

nathan_Choi Posted April 15, 2008 Share Posted April 15, 2008 Is the rust a health concern? Or just annoying? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
