Addison Roberts Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 I have a Roi Bubble I am about to sell and would love to clean it up to take some pictures. The bowl has burnt stuff all over it and I was wondering if anyone knows how to get rid of it? I heard boiling it but I was kind of skeptical about putting glass into boiling water? If this is how its done what are the steps to the process? I have tried scraping it off with a straight edge but it just took so long to even get a tiny bit off… Also I deep clean my hookah every 5-7 days and I noticed a line from well I guess its the water line where I fill it up each time. Its all the way around the hookah and I was wondering if anyone knows how to get that off? I will post pictures with my phone in a second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Addison Roberts Posted February 9, 2014 Author Share Posted February 9, 2014 Got it!!! I boiled it for 20 minutes with baking soda and a little bit of salt and it did the trick! I also got the bubble to be clean as ever using a lot of salt, a lot of baking soda, and hot water and letting it sit for about an hour… It is as clean as I received it!

Stuie Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 I boil all my bowls including my glass ones like Jet Phunnels and Crown Bowls. With residue in the base. Best bet is Denture cleaner tablets. Standard stuff not the whitening or quick cleaner. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
â€On Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Yep, denture cleaning tablets are a dream. It's amazing how well they work to get rid of those scum lines in bases just by letting them sit over night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Addison Roberts Posted February 9, 2014 Author Share Posted February 9, 2014 Where can I get denture tablets at? Walmart? Anyone know what the box looks like or the exact name of the product? Baking soda, alcohol, and a little salt worked but not 100% the line is about 10-15% visible still… Walmart was out of pipe cleaners I was hoping my niece had some but their out as well… I don't have wire hangers… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Addison Roberts Posted February 9, 2014 Author Share Posted February 9, 2014 Will lime juice do the same thing as lemon juice for cleaning hoses? Walmart was out of lemon juice so I got lime taking a long shot… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mushrat Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 I use the denture tablets. just go to nay place that has that sort of thing and look for the generic denture cleaning tablets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattarios2 Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 You can also just buy a vase brush and put a drop of dawn in the vase and scrub it real quick, takes 20 seconds. I have the same vase brush from HC that I bought in 08 and is still completely in tact and smells like nothing. For my bohemians because they are more porous I scrub them after every session. With my turk crystals they don't soak up as much stuff/gunk so I scrub those every 10 sessions or so when they start to form a ring. Other than that I just rinse them after every session.
