[QUOTE="Zeno Marx, post: 558442, member: 1211"] Even washing with cold water will speed up the greening oxidation. I'd avoid washing in that sense. Run a pipe cleaner or two after a smoke, and leave the deep cleaning for once a year, or even every couple of years as needed, because then you're going to have to magic eraser, buff, micropad, toothpaste, or something to bring it back black and shiny. I've had decent luck with keeping a nice layer of halcyon wax on the stem. It's easy and quick, too. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.finepipes.com/accessories/halcyon-ii-wax[/URL] [/QUOTE]
