Pipe Restoration - Do's and Don'ts.........

[javajunkie]

you're a bastard, rob. that's just not right...

AND it takes longer than that to really stir up a ghost. you need a year of solid abuse with a gooper, lakeland, or (god forbid) fruit salad themed shisha, to get a truly ingrained and stubborn ghost. the real bastardly ones were picked up off guys who smoked pipe daily, smoked ONE blend, and drove that shit into the ground.

And now I know who's getting a special gift in April of 2016! LOLOLOLOLOLOL - kidding. There are a lot of funny pranks I'd like to pull but that crosses the line even for me. (barely)

As I was attempting to remove the oxidation from a very stubborn kaywoodie meerscahum stem, I tried ceramic stove top polish/cleaner. Where the oxyclean and magic eraser failed, this polish took everything to a shiny black. No buffing wheel necessary.

Nice find. Did it leave any residual chemical taste or odor?

 

[Deadman's Point]

I used everclear and pipe sweetener afterwards. So far, no hallucinations. ..

Oh, and where do you guys get beeswax from? I realize who I'm talking to, so 'bees' is not the source I'm looking for.

I picked a block up from Hobby Lobby.
