Deep Cleaning Your Glass Bong
Start by emptying old water and rinsing the piece with warm water. For a deep clean, add 99% isopropyl alcohol and coarse sea salt to the main chamber. Plug the openings and shake vigorously for several minutes. The salt acts as an abrasive to scrub the resin from the glass walls. Finish by rinsing thoroughly with fresh water to ensure no alcohol remains. For specific tools to reach tight spots, check out our selection of specialized cleaning gear.

Maintaining Your Vape Tank
To clean a vape tank, first disassemble all components and remove the coil. Do not submerge the coil in water. Soak the glass tube and metal base in a bowl of warm water with a drop of dish soap. For a deeper sanitize, a short soak in propylene glycol is highly effective. Ensure every part is completely air-dried before reassembling to avoid short circuits. Health Canada emphasizes the importance of device maintenance for overall safety and performance.

Pro Tips for Long-Lasting Equipment
Never use boiling water on delicate glass as the thermal shock can cause cracks. Instead, stick to lukewarm water and dedicated cleaners. Changing your bong water daily and wiping your tank chimney weekly will prevent heavy buildup, making your deep cleaning sessions much faster. Having the right accessories on hand ensures you never have to deal with a clogged or foul-smelling device.
