[QUOTE="Singed, post: 603054, member: 6261"] I don't wash per se but after two or three bowls I lightly ream with a pipe tool and wipe the bowl interior with a dry paper towel. I clear the airway with a pipecleaner dipped in 100% grain alcohol. If the airway is particularly gummy I'll use a bristled pipe cleaner. I use filters where my pipe was designed for them, this absorbs a lot of excess moisture. I've often wondered about rinsing pipes but I rarely have a pipe in need of significant cleaning unless I've picked up an estate. Then it's usually an alcohol treatment. I don't polish my pipes, except my meers, and only with a microfiber cloth. I use food safe cutting board oil to brighten the briars, it only takes a drop. I rewaxed both my meers this past winter, they will be good for quite some time. [/QUOTE]
