chromecarz00 Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 I have a grommet that is too big for my hookah, how can I trim it down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voski Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 Never had that problem. Try freezing it. It might shrink enough to where you can fit it in your vase and then it would heat back to normal temperature and be a good fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racemyghost Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 try filing it down with a metal or wood filer. Make sure its a fine grade, you dont want anything course or else it will make the grommet jagged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theotherone31415 Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 sandpaper. i had this problem 2 weeks ago. still not totally shaved down enough, but it works. it shouldn't be too fine either, the rubber is thick as hell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MechAnt Posted May 23, 2008 Share Posted May 23, 2008 Hmmm. I don't have sandpaper handy but I wanna shave down my grommet a bit on the perpetual river. The thing is a bitch to separate from the base! Will a fairly coarse nail file work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
