[QUOTE="Jar, post: 144056, member: 1564"] Let us look closer at the problem. Very often the element which is stuck inside of vintage/previously used and left unclean pipe is, as a matter of fact, simply "glued" by dried condensate, tar, residues of smoke, etc. So it will be helpfull to find a solvent that will dissolve this "dirt". The strong alcohol - like the one reccomended for so called The Professor's Pipe-Sweetening Treatment serves very well for such purpose. Here may arise the question: what kind of alcohol ? more details on it, please...so maybe this link [url=http://www.virtualsmokinglounge.com/resources/articles/professors_pipe_sweetening_method.html]http://www.virtualsmokinglounge.com/resources/articles/professors_pipe_sweetening_method.html[/url] will be of help With hope that it helps Jacek in Poland EDIT: I posted the quotation as it is published, but let me add, that vodka or any other alcohol of similar kind contain too much of water. So stronger stuff, like mentioned Everclear consumable grain spirit or any other spirit of 95% alcohol is recommended. [/QUOTE]
