whats up tokers, so ive had a new smoking incident the other day, went to clean a herb bong that was well overdue, and after an iso > hot water rinse, the final result left a large chunk of cashed bowl, a pretty good size leaf ha, and what looks like some black strand of hair, (haha fuckn gross, noone with black hair here tho) stuck in the upper circ perc. im glad i dont really smoke this thing anymore but feel sorry for my roommates haha.

so question is:

is there any kind of chemical that will break down leaf, ash, and this odd foreign object? ive had the perc sitting in iso for a day, and i expect it take like a week at least for any progress, but for all i know it wont do anything. is there any other stronger chemicals that will still be good for smoking out of later. If it was a cheap piece of glass wouldnt really care, but def my most expensive piece, and was hoping to rip some good flowers out of er. please tell me someone else has had this happen. seems weird it made it threw the bottom circ perc but not the top one. tried shaking it around for along while and no luck. so if u have any ideas would be much obliged. cheers

Warm/hot iso with salt dissolved until saturated...agitate...should clear up

the best result i had are with vinegar. white vinegar and water (something like 50/50 but honestly i'm never precise...), boil it and bath the bong in it and/or fill the bong with the hot vinegar/water solution and agitate.
it's incredible how well vinegar cleans and leaves absolutely no smell behind. when cleaning my dabber with iso or ethilic i would often smell alcool even after several days... not with vinegar.

so been like two weeks with iso in the perc and this leaf and hair looking substance are still stuck and havent broken down. any suggestions

[Irresponsible H]

if yr bong is made of inorganic materials use sodium hydroxide also called caustic soda. will dissolve anything organic. be careful. caustic soda burns on contact with moisture and that also means your sweaty palms! use gloves. in supermarkets this country also hardwares.

NaOH will also melt your eyes on contact so be careful with it

Salt and Rubbing Alcohol

Grunge off. Its a soaking solution. Best glass cleaner ever.

Yeah if grunge off don't do it your fucked.although oxyclean might work too

[stoned-trout]

sulfuric acid and hydrogen peroxide from beauty store or hydro shop////,,,yeehaw..shit will eat organic matter like candy,,,never tried it on a bong tho...works on most other stuff ,,,lol
