I've been loving my new "terp slurper" banger! Can take ginormous dabs.
They’re so clean I envy your patience.

Thanks! I just let em soak until they're clean. 91% Iso soak for the dab rig, and iso + epsom salt for the bong
What kind of container do you use to soak em?
How many uses do you get before you replace the iso?
Sorry for all the questions. You managed to get them stupid clean and I’m terrible at it.
I have a very similar setup, I use 99% rubbing alcohol and Epsom salt as well. I'm a clean freak with my glassware so I do it every day, but it only takes a couple minutes. I boil some water, run that through all the percolators, then pour in a bit of alcohol with Epsom salt and do the same before hitting it with hot water one last time. Just slap some silicone bong caps on both sides and give it a few healthy shakes, the tar and shit comes right out.
Thanks so much for sharing your method! Seems like I’ll need to pick up some caps and a bag of Epsom salt.
To add on to the OP, if you're cleaning any kind of bong or bigger bubbler, these are great. You fill the piece up with a good amount of salt and 91%+ isopropyl alcohol, use the caps to seal it and shake the shit out of it. Prior to ordering a few packs of those, I had always just taken some saran wrap, layered it a few times over the openings and rubber banded it in place to avoid any leaks when shaking.
These look really helpful, thanks for sharing. EDIT: Just ordered em!
That's awesome! They've been so convenient to use. I just recently tried out these as well, and they've been nice for cleaning ash catchers. Rather than soaking them in a bag of iso and salt, I filled the ash catcher, used the plugs on either end and just shook it.
Damn!! Will 100% be picking up some of those. Thanks so much for sharing!
No worries, happy to answer.
- For the banger, I've been using a small Pyrex glass dish, with another dish of the same size to serve as a lid when I'm not soaking. I'm able to soak it about a dozen times before the iso gets too dirty and I replace it. I've never had a banger that required a soak after each use, but it's so worth it because the dabs taste incredible.
- For the bong, I just dump epsom salt + iso into it and make sure they get into all the chambers, then let it soak
EDIT: Rinsing + shaking with super hot water afterwards is a must.
Thanks so much for sharing! Clearly it’s working for ya.
Buy a bottle of Formula 420 from your local head shop. My girlfriend showed it to me recently and I was absolutely amazed how fast and clean it gets your glass.
I have that same bong with all the aeration. That thing hits like a freight train
The tall one looks lethal 🤣 nice collection man
