OC4111 Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 I just want to get some ideas and opinions of how people that have the glass screen from MNH are cleaning them. After a session there is shisha that is "cooked" on to the screen that does not come off easily. I tried using the same method as I do for the glass mod of my jet phunnel which is letting it sit in water and dishwashing soap over night and the clean it off with a Scotch Brite sponge but this isn't good enough. I scrape the bigger pieces off with knife but the screen isn't completely clean. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuie Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 I am using an SOS pad and then boil it for about 10 minutes...getting about 95% of it off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hookah hippie Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 what does that sos pad look like and where do I buy one?I currently put it in a pot of water with baking soda and boil it then use a sponge most of the stuff comes off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuie Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 SOS PadsEgg shaped steel wool with soapYou can find them at Walmart, Walgreens, United, 7-11, pretty much any cleaning section anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimplexCoda Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Ya i have tried the knife method of scraping the big stuff off. But there are still little bitty specs that refuse to come off, i have even tried the comet method, not so much either. im thinkin steel wool or something of the like, next screen i have im thinkin im gonna put a very very very light layer of olive oil, but i am a little afraid that it might mess with the flavor.

ronald_dooley Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 Naw... just use the SOS pad as the screen. Sit an SOS pad on top of your shisha... put coals on top, smoke up!- Ronald Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
