What’s more, Formula 420 Cleaner is made in the USA, so you know you’re getting a product that’s made with the highest standards.
How to Use 420 Cleaner
Grab your bong, bowl, or pipe, and may a couple of cotton swabs/Q-Tips. This will make it easy for you to do the job yourself. It is best to place it close to a sink that has a high water output. You should ensure that your glass is not placed too close to the countertop’s edge.
A great alternative is to use a paper towel or a rag to protect your countertops. Once you have all your stuff collected, it’s time to start cleaning. 420 Cleaner has made this as easy as it gets. And remember, vaping or smoking from a clean pipe is much more effective than using a dirty, resin-encrusted device. What’s more, it reduces the number of impurities in your body when you use a clean device.
Turn on your water supply to start the cleaning process. Once it is hot, fill your device with warm water. This is a dangerous procedure that can cause you to burn your skin, so please use caution and don’t get in a hurry. 420 Cleaner takes care of the fast-cleaning part, so you just need to be careful as you execute the process.
Once you’ve filled the device with hot water, shake it well to help loosen up and resin and accumulation inside. It is important to understand the difference between the types of cannabis products you typically use, as it will result in different resin in your device.
If you’re dealing with concentrate resin, you can then use the hot water to shake and remove most of the resin from inside your bong, pipe, or bowl. It also depends on how long the resin was left inside. It will normally work well with warm water when it is fresh resin.
After you have thoroughly rinsed your device with warm water, it’s time to get to the cleaning part. Be sure to first pour out the warm water from your bong or pipe. Be careful to not allow any residue to stick to your hands as you go. Once all the water has been drained, you can add the 420 Cleaner.
Let it get into all of the chambers and channels of your bong or pipe. Depending on the size and shape of your unit, this might take more or less time than others. Let the 420 Cleaner permeate the inside. You want to see it coated throughout the device, as this ensures that all areas will become clean.
Next, start shaking your device, making sure to keep your fingers or cotton swabs over the holes to prevent the formula from escaping. Based on how dirty your device is, you might have to shake it a bit longer. But by and large, you should only need to do this for a minute or two.
Be sure to shake vigorously, and check periodically to see how much remains. If all the residues are gone within a few minutes, it’s a good sign. This will allow you to conclude the process quickly.
If you find that residue remains after a few minutes. You might want to repeat the process. Use a bit more 420 Cleaner if needed to rinse your device. Keep shaking until you see that it has loosened up the residue inside your bong or bowl.
You can repeat this process as many times as necessary to keep your piece clean. If you find that all your shaking proves futile, you may need to rinse your piece immediately. These hard-to-reach spots can be reached with Q-tips and pipe cleaners, as well.
But by rinsing out your device with hot water, you will help flush out stubborn buildup inside your device. You can also dip your cotton swabs and Q-Tips in some 420 Cleaner to get the edges of your unit. You should only need to do a little elbow work.
Repeat as many times as needed until your bong is cleaned. You’ll likely find that your 420 Cleaner works like a charm the first time around. Only extremely filthy units require additional repeats of the above steps.
Once every bit of residue has been removed from the glass, make sure that you wash it thoroughly with warm water. Don’t overlook this step. The last thing you want is leftover 420 Cleaner mixing in with your next hit.
You can shake and rinse your piece several times with warm water until there are no traces of 420 Cleaner. Let your unit air dry, or take a hairdryer to it and gently dry the bong until all of the remaining water has evaporated. This isn’t completely necessary, but you can do so if you wish.
The Importance of a Clean Bong
It’s a well-known fact that bongs are some of the filthiest things on the planet. When they aren’t properly maintained, all kinds of contaminants build up inside.
There are many reasons why you should clean your bong. One thing to consider is that dirty bongs can lead to bad-tasting herb. But this is the least of your worries when it comes to the health risks of dirty bongs. Bongs can also lead to excessive exposure to harmful chemicals and bacteria.
This is where 420 Cleaner comes into play. When you use as directed, you can be sure to get the most from your bong and herbs and many more benefits. Below, you will find some essential reasons why you should clean your bong and get rid of all those gross germs.
To Avoid Getting Sick
Bongs are typically used to smoke herbs. Smoking herbs can result in lung irritation and breathing problems, but when you clean your bong, you can help reduce this risk. With a cleaner bong, you’re less likely to contract these harmful side effects.
To Maintain the Life of Your Bong
If you want to maintain the life of your bong, one way to do this is to clean it when it gets dirty. You’ll also find that cleaning will help remove any built-up residue as well as prevent smells in the air. And don’t forget that cleaning your bong will help you get the most out of your herbs.
To Prevent Smells in the Air
You may not be aware of it, but the smell from your bong will linger in the air. This means that you could end up with a funky-smelling apartment or house. To avoid this and also to prevent bad smells in general, you should clean your bong regularly with 420 Cleaner.
For a Better Smoking Experience
Bongs are a great way to smoke herbs. The smooth smoke you get is less harsh on the throat and lungs. Plus, the design of bongs means that the smoke is filtered through water before it hits your lungs.
But, if a bong isn’t properly cleaned, it can smell terrible and leave residue on your fingers after use. Additionally, dirty bong water can lead to illness. If you’re sick of having a smelly bong or one that doesn’t work well, here are some home remedies to keep your bong clean:
- For best results, place all pieces in a large container with some form of dish soap to soak for about 20 minutes
- Scrub with a sponge or old toothbrush until all dirt has been removed from each individual piece
- Rinse everything thoroughly before patting dry
- Boil fresh water and pour into the chamber
- Put ice cubes in the chamber to cool down the water quickly
- You should be able to see an immediate difference in both how clean and smoky your session feels
Of course, not everyone has the time or patience to go through all of those steps. That’s why you should use 420 Cleaner instead. There’s no scrubbing, no soaking; just a couple of minutes of shaking, and your bong is clean as new!
Formula 420 Cleaner is one of the most efficient bong cleaners money can buy. The powerful solution includes large chunks of salt and other chemicals that work to melt away pesky resin buildup.
It leaves your glass sparkling clean in just a few minutes. To ensure that you get the right amount of liquid and salt, shake the bottle well before using 420 Cleaner.
For Better Filtered Smoke
Bongs often have a percolator that sits atop the water chamber. The goal of the percolator is to filter smoke through water, which causes it to be smoother and more flavorful. However, this can also lead to clogs in your bong’s cooling system. Clogs can cause leaks and affect the taste of your cannabis. You’ll also see a decrease in smoke volume when clogs happen.
Get the Most Out of Your Experience
Smoking a bong or pipe is vastly different from smoking from a joint or blunt. The taste of the smoke from cannabis can be affected by what you have in your bong. If it’s not clean, you may be getting less flavor and more harshness for every hit.
But if you’re cleaning it regularly with 420 Cleaner, then each hit will be a new experience with different flavors than before. It’s no secret that herbs aren't exactly cheap. So why risk wasting your stash on a dirty bong?
With 420 Cleaner, you can look forward to smooth, flavorful hits every time. And as such, you can be sure to get the most out of your experience.
Save Money
If you’re smoking out of a bong, chances are you’re smoking herbs. And if you’re are, chances are you’re spending a lot of money on it. If you want to smoke less and save more, cleaning your bong is a great place to start.
The water in your bong will absorb the taste from the herbs after every use, so getting rid of that flavor with some cleaner will help preserve the strain’s flavor for a longer period of time.
Also, when your water is dirty and polluted, it can make it difficult to get the same effects from your herbs. Cleaning your bong will help keep that from happening and give better-tasting hits all around.
Maximize Your Taste
There are many benefits to smoking a bong instead of a joint, and one of those is taste. The downside? Bongs take more time and effort to clean, but that’s where 420 Cleaner comes in.
Some people may not know this, but cleaning your pipe or bong can actually improve the flavor of the smoke. That’s because when you use a dirty pipe or bong, you’re burning off some of the cannabinoids with every hit.
This can make your herbs less flavorful and less potent over time. So to combat that, clean up after yourself with 420 Cleaner, and enjoy maximum flavor in every hit.
Smoother Smoking
Cleaning your bong also makes it easier to smoke out of it. You won’t have to worry about all the residue from old hits sticking around and getting on everything inside your bong.
That means you get more filtered smoke as well as more flavorful smoke. And if you’ve ever had an unpleasant experience with vaporized herbs, then you know how important it is for some cleaner smokes.
For Better Tasing Smoke
Inhaling smoke is never a pleasant experience, but if you want to enjoy it more, then you should clean your bong. Smoking from a dirty bong can leave nasty tastes in your mouth.
When smoking out of a dirty bong, the herbs will come into contact with metals and other impurities that can have an unpleasant taste.
This can be avoided by cleaning your bong with 420 Cleaner when necessary. Cleaning your bong will not only prevent this from happening but will also keep your device in good condition for years to come.

How to Clean Your Pipe Using Traditional Methods
Clean your pipe:Hold the mouthpiece of the pipe in one hand and use a wet cloth to clean out the inside of the pipe. Use a pipe cleaner to work through the interior of the pipe, twisting it around to make sure all of the gunk and resin is removed.
Rinse:Rinse off any debris or dirt on your pipe with plain water, then pat dry with a cloth.
Polish:Rub some distilled spirits on a soft cloth and apply it over your bowl and mouthpiece, then wipe it down until it’s shiny again. You can also use another type of cleaner made specifically for bowls and pipes if you prefer.
Using Distilled Spirits
The first step is to put your pipe in a glass of distilled spirits. You’ll want to let it soak for about an hour. You can also use alcohol or other cleaning solution meant for pipes in place of the spirits, but you may need to soak your pipe for a bit longer if you do so.
After soaking, take the pipe out and lightly scrub it with a toothbrush, being careful not to push too hard against the bowl of the pipe as this can cause it to break.
Once you’ve brushed off any stubborn residue, rinse the pipe with water and then brush off any remaining particles.
Next, gently wipe down the mouthpiece with a soft cloth using a back and forth motion. Then wipe down the entire surface of the pipe’s exterior with another clean, soft cloth until it shines.
Why Struggle with The Old-Fashioned Methods?
As you can see, there’s A LOT of work involved when cleaning your smoking devices using old-fashioned techniques. You can avoid all of this hassle simply by using Formula 420 Cleaner. In just a matter of seconds, you can effectively remove resin buildup and other debris.

The Truth About Resin
Smoking has become a popular leisure activity, and more people than ever are participating in it. This is a good thing! However, this popularity also means that there are more avenues to explore when it comes to smoking.
One of the newest additions to the smoking world is resin or oil. It’s a type of concentrate made from extracting potent materials from herbs. The only problem is that this sticky stuff tends to clog up smoking devices, thereby detracting from the overall smoking experience.
If you want to use resin and keep your pipe clean, here’s how you can do it.
How to Keep Your Pipe Clean with Resin
Resin is a type of concentrate made from extracting chemicals from your herbs and then making it into a solid form. It’s different from regular herbs in that it’s much more potent.
Moreover, resin can be smoked using a pipe that’s specifically designed to handle the resin, or you can use your regular pipe for smoking resin as long as you clean it properly.
You can keep your pipes clean by following these steps:
- Make sure you have access to an ample amount of water and soap.
- Take your pipe apart and submerge the pieces in water so they can soak while you clean the outside of the pipe with soap (make sure not to get any water inside).
- Rinse with fresh water - make sure there are no traces of soap left on the pipe or inside of it.
- Leave each piece out to dry before putting them back together - this might take up to 24 hours, depending on how humid your environment is.
- If you notice there’s leftover resin in your pipe, you can soak it briefly in alcohol before rinsing it off.
Your Health and Safety
If you’re going to be smoking resin or any concentrates, it’s important that you do it responsibly. You want to keep your pipe clean, so you don’t risk harming your health and safety in the process. Resin is made by using a solvent like butane, alcohol, or CO2 to extract chemicals from your herbs.
This process can release harmful toxins into the air, so make sure you have a good ventilation system set up in your room by opening windows and doors or using a fan to ventilate the area.
Remember, you’re going to seriously detract from your smoking experience if your bong, bowl, or pipe is encrusted with resin. As such, it’s important to remove the buildup to get better use of your herbs or resin.
While it’s certainly OK to smoke resin, you have to be careful with how you do it. Resin will accumulate quickly, so it’s important to keep your device as clean as possible at all times. To achieve this, use Formula 420 Cleaner often.
Formula 420 is a powerful cleaner. It’s safe to use in the home and environmentally friendly. Formula 420 is also the only cleaner that effectively removes resin buildup and eliminates those unwanted odors at the same time.
