Spring Cleaning III: Resin
[dropcap class=”kp-dropcap”]T[/dropcap]here are some tough messes that take a little elbow grease to remove—and the thick goo of cannabis resin is one of them. If you’re not careful, this stuff can get stuck on any surface, and can be a huge pain to remove. Luckily there are a few ways to clean up that mess without much effort at all! Try these resin cleaning products on for size and get your resin preparation area cleaned in no time.
Glob Mops: Vape pens get all the concentrate action, which also means that those devices will eventually experience resin build up. The owner of Glob Mops found that cotton swabs weren’t strong enough for the task of cleaning, so he invented Glob Mops instead. Made of wooden sticks, rather than weak plastic, “The glob mops work wonders for keeping your nails fresh for every rip.”
Randy’s Black Label: While this cleaning solution brags about its ability to clean glass, metal and ceramics, it specifically targets removing tough resin and goo buildup. Claiming to act “lightning fast,” it’s well worth the investment. While the company does sell this product online, it also sells its product in select stores. If you want to see this product in a dispensary near you, reach out to them and let them know!
Mile High Cleaner: This unique cleaner is made of 100 percent all-natural plant-based oil! Although it’s not cannabis oil, it does help perpetuate the cannabis community’s goal of supporting plant-based products, versus harmful chemicals. The owners of this product boast that it can remove resin from glass, metal, plastic, wood, acrylic, paint and even fabric.
Klear Kryptonight: This brand of cleaning supplies offers both a multi-purpose and extractor cleaner, both of which have been proven very effective on often-used cannabis glass products. We mentioned this product in our previous series on cleaning products for cannabis, but it’s ability to remove resin with a single wipe helps.
Of course, you can always take the natural, D.I.Y. route using a mixture of plain old cooking oil, warm water and dish soap. It won’t be an instant removal however, as it will most likely require a bit of soaking and scrubbing before you see results.
