I came to class stoned out of my mind every day, i chugged vodka in the back of class, i put dead fish in the ceiling tiles. i put a gallon of old milk and orange juice in the file cabinet before winter vacation. i brought snakes in a tied up sweater and let them loose during class. i didnt go to school to learn, i went because i had to. i didnt care, and i didn't fucking listen to that stupid bitch. and i still don't fucking care. i tore the pages out of her books and burned them, and threw away all the books in the class, two books per day.

My buddies use rubbing alcohol and a lighter. Then afterwords they put in in a warm water bath and put in in the fridge to cool. The last part most likely does nothing, but its just something they do, I don't complain.

Any solvent will work, acetone, alcohol, laquer thinner, and most head shops will carry a pipe cleaning solution.

Id advise cleaning the solvent out of the peice before using it though. Thats what the water bath my friends do is for, I had to call them a minute ago, so I asked, and that was the answer.

the highest proof of rubbing alcohol + epsom salt has always worked for me. just let sit for a few minutes, then shake it up. for a pipe, let sit in a glass jar or something to fully soak the piece

dude, go cheap and use 91% isotropic alcohol with salt, salt acts an agitator and well all that goo is alcohol soluble

Acetone works fantastically, but I've started using rubbing alcohol after the cashier at Wally world started asking all kinds of questions about what I was using Acetone for. Doesn't work quite as well, but it's worth it to not draw any suspicion.
