The kind with the wire, the kind I think of as "the scrubby:" I hate these.
The craft store pipe cleaner: Probably full of Chinese toxins.
The fluffy: Tolerable.
The tapered fluffy: Neither better nor worse than the regular fluffy.
Your standard pipe cleaner: Good for many situations.
The skinny one made for a Falcon: GOOD FOR ALL SITUATIONS.
YMMV.

Craft store toxic Chinese pipe cleaners are no longer true pipe cleaners and are derived from a super secret non-moisture absorbing compound extracted from bat feces that are found in most wet markets.
Well, the really good wet markets anyway.

I think pipe cleaners from china really sums up communism as a whole
Im a dills fan . JB Long [ the regular ones ] are fine too but I buy Dills . I saw that MacBaren has a line of cleaners out and I might try a pack for fun when I make my next order , whenever that is . I think the crap ones [ china and the like ] should be called Craft something or other . God forbid they try being used on a pipe

I’m a dills man. Only because that’s what’s available at the gas station here in town. I don’t plan on switching brands unless they do. I am probably the only person who buys them. I tried Zen pipe cleaners one time when DarkFlake sent me a care package and they were fine. If that’s what my gas station sold I would be alright with that.
All this time, I've thought they are called BJ Long pipe cleaners.Ruffinogold wrote: ↑Mon May 03, 2021 4:18 pm .... JB Long [ the regular ones ] are fine too but I buy Dills .

Dills. Also the guy at the tobacco shop I go to has these really long no name cleaners that are absorbent and cheap. They are probably 18” long, I snip them in half.

Your rival/archenemy is still at it, eh? lolBruyere_Royale wrote: ↑Mon May 03, 2021 8:36 pm Dills are what I use when I can find them around here. I've been using Ream and Kleen and that are not good at all, more of a bristle brush. BJ Longs are another reliable pipe cleaner.
