Last night I decided to clean my glass. To clean a piece I first fill it up with 99% isopropyl alcohol and add as much salt as I can fit. Then I shake the shit out of it until most of the reclaim is dissolved. Next I get the water as hot as I possibly can and start adding a little at a time while still shaking. Finally, I rinse with RO water. I cleaned three pieces this way.
To clean the nail, I turned the temperature down to about 350°F. After it heated up, I added some RO water with a pipet and let it boil for a while. I sucked the, now dirty, water out and repeated a few times to get the majority of the carbon off. Then I added some 99% isopropyl to the water to get the remaining residue off with a cotton swab.
