Ballr & Big Ballr Water Pipe Mouthpiece

Step-by-step guide: Cleaning a Water Pipe

1. Empty the Water Pipe: Pour out any remaining water or residue from the device.
2. Disassemble: If your tool has removable parts, such as a bowl or downstem, remove them.
3. Rinse with Warm Water: Rinse the device with warm water to remove loose debris.
4. Add Isopropyl Alcohol and Salt: Pour a generous amount of isopropyl alcohol into the base of the water pipe. Add coarse salt to the device if it is super-soiled (optional). The salt acts as an abrasive to help scrub off residue.
5. Plug Openings: If your device has multiple openings (such as the downstem and mouthpiece), use plugs or caps to seal them.
6. Shake Vigorously: Cover the openings and shake the water pipe vigorously. The alcohol and salt mixture will scrub away resin and buildup.
7. Soak and Shake Individual Parts: If your device has removable parts, like the bowl or downstem, place them in a plastic bag with isopropyl alcohol and salt. Shake the bag to clean these parts thoroughly.
8. Use Pipe Cleaners or Cotton Swabs: For hard-to-reach areas, use pipe cleaners or cotton swabs dipped in isopropyl alcohol to clean the interior.
9. Let It Soak (Optional but recommended): If there are stubborn stains or buildup, let the alcohol and salt mixture sit in the water pipe for some time before shaking again.
10. Rinse Thoroughly: Rinse the water pipe and all components thoroughly with warm water to remove any remaining alcohol, salt, or residue.
11. Inspect and Repeat (If Necessary): Check for any remaining residue. If needed, repeat the process until the device is clean.
12. Air Dry: Allow the water pipe and its components to air dry completely before reassembling and using it.
