Plug the bowl and shank, then 409 general purpose spray cleaner and a toothbrush. Rinse and dry with a cloth, buff with beeswax.
Simplicity. I like it. Nice little Lark KK. Jimmy1973 was a Lark guy I recall.

As for the Lee's pipes thing, what or who am I missing? Drawing a blank.
Thanks! It is a nice one. And who doesn’t like a Lark!

The Lee stuff is from the Pipes Magazine forum.
Copy that.

So many different ways. I’ve never heard anyone use general cleaner. Happy to see it turns out good :thumbs:
Our friend Dave Whitney, @pipesbywhitney, used to clean exteriors with Simple Green. I’ve used that, too.

Grabows have a lacquer finish ... a general cleaner is not an issue and will clean the hell out of them :thumbs:
