Best Way to Clean a Bong

If you’d like to know the best way to clean a bong, then keep reading. The evolution of the bong has gone from the straight tube and shot gun carb, to stellar, handcrafted glassworks of art, complete with all-glass slider bowls, ash catchers, multi-armed percolators and diffusers.

True cannabis connoisseurs will stop at nothing to create the finest smoking experience possible. The challenge is when glass blowers create wilder, more imaginative and aesthetic smoke-ware, they use the high quality borosilicate, Schott, Duran, or Pyrex glass available. Not to mention adding gold and silver fumed glass works or dichroic effects, which will cost you big time should you break her while cleaning.

Expensive glass bongs have hard to clean nooks and crannies that can crack and break while trying to clean out tar and resin stains. The first thing you don’t want to do is leave behind a chemically toxic residue or use anything abrasive, which might scratch your expensive borosilicate glass. For example, don’t use toxic scrubbing bubbles, brake or carb cleaners, acetone, kerosene or “quats” as found in Formula 420.

The most popular way to clean glass bongs is using Isopropyl alcohol and rock salt, called “salting out.” Isopropyl alcohol will mix with water by adding inorganic table salt, it makes the alcohol less soluble, creating a “solvent layer” that works well at dissolving resin and tars. Only drawbacks are you that need a larger salt crystal to “scrub” the glass well enough and isopropyl is toxic. Bottom line is any kind of scrubbing, scratches quality borosilicate, Schott, Duran, or Pyrex glass, both weakening your glass bong and creating micro-scratches where more tar and resin can build up. Plus, hot rinsing can crack delicate glass parts. To cut to the chase, the best way to clean your glass bong is a concentrated 100%, non-hazardous, green, biodegradable alternative to all other harmful cleaners. We highly recommend Kleen Green Gold.

Kleen Green Gold easily mixes with distilled water to create an environmentally and biologically safe technology, whereby microscopic energy fields of negative ions create a unique molecule, which is non-abrasive even to the finest bong glass works. A team of organic scientists specifically developed Kleen Green Gold to be the “gold standard” of safe and effective glass bong cleaners. Kleen Green Gold leaves no residue, is made without VOCS (volatile organic compounds), and quickly removes stains from molds, fungus, mildew, tars, oils, and resins on virtually any ceramic, glass, metal, or plastic surfaces. Kleen Green Gold’s ingredients: 100% Non-Hazardous, green, biodegradable Botanical (Plant Based) Soap Formula made with de-ionized water, fatty acids, organic alcohol, Folic acid, mineral based surfactants.
