Re: Mineral Spirits used to clean pipe... I've always ueed rubbing alcohol, or good old fashioned scraping with an unbent paper clip to clean pipes. My buddy just got the idea to use mineral spirits since his dad had some in the garage. I know the stuff isn't flammable but its highly caustic...

My buddy used Mineral Spirits to clean his clogged pipe, even after I strongly suggested rubbing alcohol and salt. His pipe reeks an awful chemical smell and I refuse to smoke with it. Am I overeacting? Or can I get some support that I'm right and he is a idiot?
