Default Cleaning the inside of your pipes.

Hey guys. What do you use to clean the inside of your pipes. They get so dirty in there. I tried using dish soap, but it just keeps getting dirty. My uncle told me I should scrub in the other direction. I tried that too, but it doesn't work either. I don't think he knew what he was talking about.

Really? Now I'm supposed to clean inside my pipes? Another thread suggested washing the inside of my helmet. So, now how often should I clean the underside of my fenders?

It is one of three states according to my uncle. Texas, California, and Houston.

I just jam a preasure washer up the pipe as far as I can get it. Then I sit back and let my dog link peanut butter off my ***** while surfing HD forums on my cell phone.

I've been told my process is overly complicated but it works so I ain't changing ****.
