How do I take this crap off of my bong without damaging it in any way? (Pic)

Hello,

how do I take this crappy face off of my bong without chemicals, without scratching it, and without cracking it? Burn it off? Please let me know Thanks a bunch!

u might try lacquer thinner or acetone. they can be bought cheap at wal -mart,..might work

well honestly its early and im real stoned not sure if that will work or not but maybe

i would try to use something like mentioned but a fine steal wool pad as the applicator
good luck

That depends if it is on the inside or the outside. If it is on the inside I would use coarse salt with laquer thinner or mineral spirits.

whats wrong with it ? you must have liked it at one time or you wouldn't have the bong

what is the face made from? is it just a glass paint etc, or is it some kind of transfer, sticker, that nobbly hard stuff like on corona bottles?

u put a better stickerover it or just scratch it of...

It's on the outside... I actually didn't know it would be on there. The pic in the online shop is bare glass. I don't know what type of sticker it is but the bong was around 25 bucks, so the face may not be real quality like, but the bong is solid gold. Got some cool features and seems really quality like...

Looks like a cheapo bong anyways, thin glass and all. I'd be careful trying to scrub that face off... might break the glass if you put too much pressure on it. Find an emblem or sticker you DO like and just cover it up. Not to sound rude, but that bong probably won't last long anyway.

The glass is actually pretty thick. More than 2mm Mr. Cheapo Bong.


This isn't in response to the quote: If I were to try and burn it off, how would I heat it up safely and cool it off in order avoid cracking it. Would I stick it in warm water, than boiling, and finally apply a flame and vice versa?

Good advice, but if this doesn't work, paint stripper will.

A razor blade would take it off, but you'd probably scratch the glass

Heat it and it will explode - its not pyrex

looks similar to my cheapo bong but mine has a dragon on it. some mineral spirits or acetone with fine steel wool should work. maybe wet it first with the acetone or mineral spirits and let it eat at it for 5 min or so and it should come right off with the fine steel wool.

then i suggest you get over it and just smoke somehting outta the thing.

Theres no way you're gettin it off without being 1) very physical with you glass investment or 2) using gnarly chemicals.
IMO paint stripper would do the job, but then again that shit can eat through your skin..

What the hell does that say? WUJO?

Just get really stoned and pick at it for hours on end, if it starts to get boring, smoke some more.

hell yeah, get stoned using it and then pick at it. no chems at all!!! good thinking risky fart.

You said you paid $25 for it, which makes it a cheapo bong. Hell, I've got a 6 inch tall pyrex bong that cost me $35. A decent quality regular-sized glass piece will cost you AT LEAST $100 easily.

2 millimeters? LOL. I've got contact lenses thicker than that.
