Eh....I wouldn't put chemicals in my pipe......I would use hot water and shake the fucker hard though. That's weird that it won't come out. Good luck to you sir.

99% iso + salt and shake the hell out of it. THen use paper clips to get the stuff that doesnt come off.
If you clean a pipe regularyly, when you do try and clean it, its not a big pain in the ass.

Just get some alcohol or something.. there's a couple new smoke shops in nanaimo that you should check out. You can pick up some "ciggarette and ashtray" cleaners if you're lazy. Just make sure to rinse it out when you're done, and the whole ordeal will cost 5 minutes of your time.

You might just have to retire the pipe.
Try boiling the pipe and pushing the rez while it is still hot. The heat will lube the rezz up like a whore in Holland.
Then try stickin it and pushing it out the larger end if the pipe is taperred. Once you get a clear airway, use rubbing alchohol and pipe clearers/scrapers.
Good luck on the salvage.

hmm try to boil the fuck out of it and then use salt and iso right after that. if that doesnt work use olive oil or vegtable oil in your pipe and use paper clips and hopefully it will slide out

Maybe you can fit a plumbers snake up in that shit? A snake won't break and probably will get past the curves. The pipe will have to be hot as hell, and you'll need oven mits. Good luck, man.
