[QUOTE="Doc Manhattan, post: 20453, member: 341"] A real neophyte question: is it common for some stain to rub off of a new pipe? It's happening with a recently-purchased briar. I've done my best to minimize outside causes--making sure my hands are clean and dry, etc. Even so, I get bright orange stains on my hand and the soft cloth I use to wipe off the rim after it cools. I've never had this happen before. (In fact, it took some real effort and lots of vodka-soaked cotton to get the stain out of the bowl of a cheaper Peterson.) Is this normal? Does it eventually stop if it is? [/QUOTE]
