The best solution to clean your pipes:
Pipe cleaners are an essential accessory for a clean pipe. They are especially made to get rid of build-ups of tar, nicotine and moisture in the stem (and shank) of your pipes.
These conical pipe cleaners are thinner on one side than on the other. Therefore, you'll be able to clean all your pipes, even those that have a narrow draft hole. Moreover, the cotton will absorb all impurities so that your pipe will be clean and ready to use again!
Why use a pipe cleaner?
First, it is important to remember to clean your pipe after every use. It is a mandatory step, without which you won't be able to fully savor the tobacco's aroma. If you do not do it, you might clog your pipe and it will not be good to smoke in. However, if you clean it regularly, you will be able to enjoy it for a long time!
How to use these pipe cleaners?
Before anything, make sure your pipe has cooled down completely before disassembling it. To take off the stem, turn it on itself (as if it was screwed on) while pulling gently. Once it is off, take out the filter (if your pipe has one) and take a pipe cleaner. Run the pipe cleaner through the stem. By doing so, the impurities will be absorbed by the pipe cleaner. Of course, if the pipe cleaner is very dirty once you pull it out, do not hesitate to repeat these steps with clean ones!
A pack contains 100 pipe cleaners, that are about 16cm long. They will be perfect for short and medium-sized pipes. If your pipe has a long stem, you will need long pipe cleaners.
