Care Instructions

Proper maintenance of your new Proto Tool is essential for longevity and consistent high performance. Regular cleaning helps prevent excessive buildup and keeps everything functioning smoothly.

For easy cleaning, remove any residue before it hardens. A small brush or cotton swab can help with upkeep, while isopropyl alcohol and Q-tips work well for cleaning the bowl, chamber, and mouthpiece. For a deeper clean, disassemble the removable components, soak them in rubbing alcohol, and wipe down the tubes and bowl.

After cleaning, thoroughly rinse all parts with hot water to remove any remaining residue. With proper care, your new Proto Tool will maintain its classic look and performance – lasting for decades to come!
