GRAND MASTER SMOKE (32oz) Soak & Wash Biodegradable Formula - Bong Cleaner/Glass Pipe & Hookah Cleaner - Sanitize + Deodorize, Restores 420 & 710 Heady Glass Back To New - No Shaking/No Scrubbing

I generally use 91% isopropyl to clean but with the current apocalypse I couldn't find any so I went with this. It was as effective as dish soap on resin and wax, so not at all. After soaking overnight there was very little change, I scrubbed items with this cleaner and still had to boil. It's a no from me.

I used salt/alcohol for many years, then moved to grunge off soaker. The ongoing soaking cycle with pieces has changed my life. I always have clean stuff now. So I've used grunge off for a couple years and looked to this as a cheaper alternative since my grunge off soak dish got a little too thick & nasty and it just reached the end of its lifespan. (Needs to be swapped every few months)** Overall / Price -Overall it's not "best in class performance" for a soaker but it's definitely "best cost/performance ratio" since the competing product works a bit better but is 2x the price!** Product - .- It smells almost like nothing, maybe a slight "cleaning product" smell. Not off putting at all, not strong, and more pleasant than grunge off strong orange/chemical smell.- The color is bright hot pink. Literally.- It feels less viscous than grunge off- Rinses easily, just as easy as anything else. I personally always finish quick splash of alcohol to finish everything off and sterilize before pieces goe back into use.- This product (Zen Master) doesn't say on the bottle that it's reusable but any soak solution can be used multiple times until the solution is too degraded with muck. So I"m treating this product as a reusable soaker, keep that in mind when I'm comparing prices. I don't have long term experience with its re usability though but so far I think it'll be fine.** Effectiveness:If you have PLANT based gunk/resin - This stuff works wonders. Give it 15-60 mins soak depending on filth level and rinse. Works great unless it's stubborn caked on thick tar on your piece then you're gonna need to agitate it a bit and go for longer soaks. If it's like nasty half inch thick I suggest scrape at it to allow the stuff to soak into the layer of gunk. Same goes for any competing product though. This stuff works just as well as any other product in its class for plant based resin.If you have WAX based gunk/reclaim? Nothing works like a miracle but I can say Grunge off DEFINITELY more effective than Zen Master and is. IMO if you're cleaning dab rigs more than 50% of the time then you may want to look at grunge off instead. It's twice the price though!! (dabbing is kinda gross imo)

Cleaned up the gunk and resin pretty nicely, did have to use brush though to get a quicker clean vs letting the bong pieces sit in solution for 3-5 hours as directed- I’m simply an impatient smoker but it worked well. Make sure to rinse throughly to avoid soap aftertaste though as that and the smell of the solution isn’t very appealing.

Grand Master Smoke did more than just clean my bong... He taught me respect. Respect for my belongings, and more importantly respect for myself.

I got this product as an alternative to alcohol during the rona. I clean pieces between smoke sessions, not every month or every week. I rotate a few bowls so they remain clear. I kept a mason jar of the pink stuff and I rotate soaking them basically. The liquid can be dumped into your bong, (just cap it off, Im using those hemper black silicon plugs.) and fill and let sit for at least 45 min or so and then if theres any black/ash residue you can get it easily with a qtip or cloth. You can't mix this product with water to get desired effects, it rinses and feels like soap but it has to be as dense as it comes every time or its not going to work. Bad reviews with bubbles in their photos cannot follow directions.
