Welcome to the club! You're just getting started, aren't you? What if I told you preparing a bong doesn't need a degree in rocket science?

It's simple - a clean bong is the path to achieving an exceptional smoking experience. Fret not! We've got your back with tips and tricks to get your bong ready.

Meet the Bongs and Their Baths

You're planning on savoring your smoke from a bong, right? Cleanliness isn't just godliness here. It's also key for a great experience. To have your bong squeaky clean, gather rubbing alcohol, salt and a scrubber.

• Salt goes into the bong first, kind of like seasoning it without the chicken, followed by loads of rubbing alcohol. Impersonating Tom Cruise in Cocktail for some minutes will knock off any gunk.
• Every nook and cranny shall be scrubbed! Empty out the mixture once done and give it a hot water bath. Remember trying to brew tea but forgetting tea leaves? That's how it should be!
• Rinse till all salt and alcohol exits stage left!

Isopropyl Alcohol: The Sanitizer Hero We Deserve

The dynamite of cleaning solutions is none other than alcohol. Here's how you drive this:

• Drown your bong in Isopropyl Alcohol mixed with warm water.
• Salt joins this party too! Let it sit until a full episode of "Friends" is done. This will relax any stubborn dirt clinging on.
• Once that's done, decant it all and give your bong a good old warm rinse. Simple, right?

Cleaning with Salt and Vinegar: Not Your Normal Sandwich Pickle

Combining salt and vinegar for cleaning your bong is practically Harry Potter magic! It’s a down-to-earth cleaner that helps you get rid of any pesky residues. Ready, set, go:

• Flood your bong with equal measures of salt and vinegar. Let it stay until you've caught up with Facebook newsfeed or approximately an hour; then give it a vigorous shake.
• Pour out the mixture and bathe the bong in cold water when the time’s up.

Pick Your Cleaning Weapon

We believe everyone has their BFF cleaning partners for their bongs – some prefer water and salt; others swear by vinegar or even baking soda mixtures to shine their beauties. Serenading a little under my umbrella, aren't we?

• Vinegar can make wonders happen too! Drown your bong in vinegar for a few hours, then rinse with warm water and towel-dry for sparkling results!
• Against stubborn residue - rubbing alcohol or isopropyl alcohol could be your secret weapon - same process as vinegar! Shouldn't we try these powerful tools once?
• If none above work, baking soda paired with warm water forms a pasty scrubber which can be used as the last resort, followed by rinsing and drying.

Stay Clean-living with Your Bong

If you're smoking from a bong, it's essential to maintain it properly, isn't it? To keep your bong at its best:

• Discard the bong water and rinse with warm water. It will dismiss the unwanted guests – resin and residues.
• Scrub off the stubborn gunk with a soft brush or rag – like your very personal spring cleaning to your bong. Hot rinse and let it dry au natural completes this exercise.

Bong Voyage!
