inino Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 ya, i got a shotgun cleaner from walmart, it was maybe like 10 bucks. they come with multiple tips, get one thats about an inch in diameter, and one thats really small for the purgevalve. they last and work way better than the plastic ones that they usually give with your hookah.

Cleaning it about once every other day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ender11122 Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 If you clean it that often you actually increase ur chances to get rust . But better to clean than not to clean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But better to clean than not to clean not if you dry it or blow dry it after you clean it. I scrub it after every session then blow dry it after use which takes about 30 - 45 seconds to fully dry the pipe, then voila dry clean pipe!
