Some power tools and industrial solvents may have been used in the process.

I wouldn’t have dared to show the before-picture even if I had one. It was bad. Really bad.

    A full bong may be too big, but for my dry herb vape and glass pipes, I put them and the vape parts in zip lock baggies, cover with IPA, and put it in my harbor freight ultrasonic cleaner for about 6 minutes. Rinse and it’s spotless every time.

      Mighty vaporizer is a pain to clean as well. Not sure how the plastics feel about IPA though.

        I have a mighty. I’ve had to replace two rubber gaskets over about 6ish years, but that’s as much normal wear as anything else, getting pinched when putting it back together. I do have to pop the screen out of the mouthpiece to effectively get it clean, but that’s nothing. The one thing that did happen due to the IPA is the textured logo thing on the mouthpiece lock fell off after a couple years when the adhesive wore out.

          I don’t care about the logo. I was just wondered if the plastic is going to be fine. Thanks!

            The orange grinder and filler that came with it, the clearish caps did get etched and foggy after an iso bath. Still functional, but ugly now. The original mouthpiece looks as new as when I got it, and I have a backup that I swap to when the first has restricted airflow from resin build up. Once both are dirty, I procrastinate a bit longer then do both at once.
