Tips To Clean And Maintain Smoking Accessories
Hitting a bong won’t kill you, but E. coli might if you aren’t taking care of your smoking accessories. Having a wide selection of smoking accessories and paraphernalia makes smoking way more fun, but if you don’t take care of your smoking accessories and clean them regularly, they can become sources of potentially harmful bacteria and contribute to a sour taste and poor performance. Maintenance isn’t nearly as difficult as it may seem, and after your initial cleaning, all of the future ones will take less time.
Make it a Habit
Cleaning out your accessories may seem like a drag if you’ve never done it before, but if you clean out your smoking accessories after each use for a few days, it’ll become second nature to you, and your lungs will thank you, and each clean will take a little less time than the last. While vaping and smoking do not include the chemicals and additives of tobacco products, there are naturally occurring components that can create an off taste if they build up. Investing in quality dab tools and cleaning supplies makes the job much easier.
Deep Cleaning
Rinsing your smoking accessories off with water is a great start, but it’s important to deep clean and completely remove residue on a regular basis as well. When we say deep cleaning, all we mean is using a cleaning solution like 99% Isopropyl alcohol, which is meant for glass accessories. For more information on Isopropyl, check out this blog.
If your accessories are metal or ceramic, you just need some boiling water. Soak your accessories in the water and use a brush or cloth to remove any residue.
When you clean your accessories, make sure you’re taking them apart and cleaning each piece individually. This helps make sure all residue and any mold or bacteria that is present are removed for your safety and quality experience.
