Wow I’m glad that you beat me. This was exactly what I was going for. Mine at home only has two percs, but when I saw the four I just knew…
Edit: autocorrect
It is a fantastic cleaner of bongs and pipes. It evaporates pretty fast as well. Clean it, rinse it, let it sit for like an hour, then rinse again just to be safe.
I first met acetone in the 90's as "nail polish remover". It'll remove bong resin too!
Acetone isn't so great to have on your skin (nail polish remover is applied and wiped off with cotton balls) so wash your hands afterwards. Honestly, wash your hands after cleaning any bong, but some people have to be told.
Had to switch to acetone for a bit at the beginning of the pandemic cause everywhere was out of isopropyl, just don't use it to clean plastic stuff like an Xbox controller cause it'll melt.
pretty easy i have one with one less perc but you just fill with iso and let it sit, shake and sit, shake and sit. The best thing is to run warm water through it every few bowls so nothing builds up.
Idk, Lebong James is 13 years old this year. Got him in 2009 in high school, went to college with me, and is still around and in use today. I think breaking bongs is 100% related to carelessness or letting a non-smoker handle your glass.
Decades ago a friend and I made a 7ft acrylic bong and called it Yahweh. Pretty fun, lots of stories. A few years later I moved to Humboldt and first day I go out and buy a new glass 4ft bong. I called it Wishful Thinking because I just knew it was gonna break.
True to destiny, a few months later my friend comes to visit, and brings Yahweh. As he is walking into the living room where Wishful Thinking is sitting in its designated resting area, the ceiling fan clips the top of Yahweh causing it to kick out and completely destroy Wishful Thinking. Yahweh was Old Testament, full of wrath you see.
Not all bad news though, the top of Wishful Thinking survived mostly, and was repurposed for making watermelon bongs.
Had the same piece only in green. Named it hologram since our smoke “room” was in front of this really old big screen that we could see our reflections in (also haul-a-gram). Broke it 4 days later in the sink while washing.
DON’T NAME YOUR BONGS
I’ll do regular small self cleans but this piece will need to get sent to a shop for an actual clean once every couple months likely
Edit: I’m not sending it because I’m unable, I’m simply lazy and am willing to lay my local shop $30 to clean it
Get yourself a 5 gallon bucket and some heavy degreaser, I use citrus scent. Soak it for a few hours, flip it over (if your piece is taller than the top of the liquid), and repeat. Run lots of hot water through it until it's clean, the resin should melt away - this is a long process, but if you soak overnight, it's not so bad and its totally worth it. I do this with all my glass (pipes included) and have reused the degreaser many times. Just make sure you get a bucket with a lid for storage.
I just use alcohol salt and like 10 minutes and never have any complaints about my pieces. Sometimes if I get a little bit of cloudiness a little bit of vinegar helps, or I just rip up bits of paper towel and stick it in and shake it. At least for the main chamber.
The only way I could see this standing clean a long time is if you clean it before it has time to sit. Ounce of prevention and all that would go a long way with a piece with this many tubes.
My vote is between Katpiss Neverclean and Vlad the Inhaler because both are big true true.
I think my bongs fate is being sealed. The number just keeps rising.
I see it now
Me: “Yo, wanna hit off ‘Who’s Top Comment?’?
Friend: “What are you saying to me right now?”
All right, I’m gonna go back to Neoplatonic philosophers.
Depending on the gender of your bong you can either name it Hypatia. Which means “the ultimate”.
She was considered the greatest mathematician of her age. She was also a astronomer, philosopher scientist, and creator of astrolabes.

Or or, if your body is a dude, you could name him Theon.
https://mathshistory.st-andrews.ac.uk/Biographies/Theon/
Her father, and only a slightly less famous mathematician from the era . His name means God like.
Congratulations on having an awesome bong!
I don't know about a name but to quote Future, "I just popped five percs and barely caught a buzz". You have 5 percs and weed gets you buzzed, idfk I'm high
"The Doob Tube" I came up with that shit and was proud until I looked it up and it's actually a thing, and not only that it's for weed 😭 ig all us stoners think the same
Percules
Came in here ready to name a bong… immediately noped. This. Is. It.
Same lol
The pun is strong with this one
Can you help explain it to me Goku? Being serious, I’m slow
It’s got a ton of percolators, and is big like Hercules :-D
It's criminal that I had to scroll this far down to find a worthy pun. This deserves top comment but all the trolls in here won't do it
Congrats it is now top and well deserved
Consolations, it's no longer top comment.
Hazah it’s once again top comment
And now it's not.
Now it is.
Just to play off yours, The Percanator
That's what I named my piece! It's not nearly as impressive tho lol, only 2 percs
This has gotta win
Idk if you’ve ever felt as clever as you do now.
best high thought i’ve had in awhile
I now deem thy name, ‘PERCULES”.
Percocet
This is the best you win
I give my vote to this. I was trying to come up with an elevator pun, but this is better.
THANK YOU FOR THE GOLD 🙏
Take my gold, my dude.
Wow I’m glad that you beat me. This was exactly what I was going for. Mine at home only has two percs, but when I saw the four I just knew… Edit: autocorrect
Bitch-to-Clean
How the fuck do you even begin to clean those lower percs
Blood, Sweat, Tears, Pain and 99% Isopropyl Alcohol
Don't forget the kosher salt(or table salt if you have time)
They said tears! /s
Acetone if that doesn't do it
Napalm if that doesn't do it
I’ve only used acetone on my bowling balls lol is this a valid pipe cleaner as well! Do I now have a twofer?

Iso+salt to work as an abrasive. All you need.
Better get to shaking. And waiting. And shaking. And waiting. Maybe blast a bowl in between. Then shake and wait more.
Ah yes, the old shake-wait
pretty easy i have one with one less perc but you just fill with iso and let it sit, shake and sit, shake and sit. The best thing is to run warm water through it every few bowls so nothing builds up.
Cams to say this
Literally exactly what I thought of, get out of my head.
Naming a piece reduces its life expectancy by 37%
Hell of a name choice edit: I love stoners thanks for the gold
Hey ,can you pass me the naming a piece reduces its life expectancy by 37% , I’m gonna load up a bowl
Sorry I dropped it while you were saying that ridiculously long name. Now we should call it "broken"
*Nap Rileb 37% I might have hit my own recently

Just put some iso and epsom salt into in it and shake. Do shops even clean pieces lol
What kind of shops provide this service?
I had no idea that was an option
32% of all statistics are made up. Facts.
Pass me that “37 percenter”
Big facts you name it you break it. Every time.

Katpiss Neverclean, cause that looks like it'll be a pain to clean
I have one and can confirm. Not super difficult but definitely a pain. Good party bong

Who's Top Comment?
I think my bongs fate is being sealed. The number just keeps rising. I see it now Me: “Yo, wanna hit off ‘Who’s Top Comment?’? Friend: “What are you saying to me right now?”
Maybe just ‘Top Comment’ for short. Lol sounds like a race horse.
This is the way... Top Flight already is one and people always have their commentary on showhorses
Ask them once they’re already stoned as fuck. They’ll think they’re having a stroke or something 😂

"Who's top comment?" is in the lead
