so much gunk taken out of the chamber....poured an entire bottle of rubbing alcohol in there, shook it up a bit...let it sit a while...took less than an hour to get as close to spotless as it will ever be able to get again in this lifetime....it looks (almost) new! also, i took an alcohol wipe like you use before getting a shot and wiped what little resin was in the bowl out....it looks better now, and hopefully will taste better as well. i saved the brown alcohol from the inside of the bong, though. i'm going to evaporate off the alcohol and have some resiny goodness pretty soon, but i'm house sitting for my parents at the moment so i can't yet.
love my bong! its great....14 inches of pure glass, baby....heavy duty, too. get good enough hits off of it sometimes that my roommate has described it as "getting punched in the face with pot" unfortunately its too bulky, noisy, and conspicuous to take with me everywhere, but if i could i would smoke out of it exclusively....
roor? i've seen them online and they're ungodly expensive for what doesnt look like anything particularly special. i always hear they're good, but i dont care HOW good it is, you can't justify so high a cost for such a plain looking peice...
