[QUOTE="desertpiper, post: 397260, member: 2370"] So, I watched the video. And as far as stain penetration goes, couldn't say. Cutting up one pipe and proclaiming stain does not penetrate is not very convincing. Doing a "water test" and applying it to air is incorrect, apples and oranges. Especially after saying the water penetrated 1/32. cool water in an unlit pipe can't be compared to hot gasses in a heated pipe bowl. I would have to agree with Mr Pease on that one. And to proclaim that brier does not breathe doesn't cut it either. Seeing that pretty much everything on this blue marble "breathes" to some extent or other. Wood is porous, some more than others but porous. Does it breath like we do of course not, is it measurable probably (with the right equipment). You have been smoking pipes with the outside well coated and they smoke fine, great enjoy them. But maybe ask your self, would they smoke better with out the coating. Would make for some interesting experimenting. Me personally, I probably wouldn't know the difference. I don't smoke enough. [/QUOTE]
