91% Isopropyl evaporates clean. I've been using it for years. It's the best thing to remove machining oil.I won't use rubbing alcohol, it's toxic. If you must use alcohol use high proof Vodka or Everclear.
I actually use a non toxic jewelry cleaner in my ultrasonic, which I give it a thorough rinsing afterwards.
I know some in the Pipe community use it to clean out their Pipe's, I still won't use it. No real reason while there are non toxic alternatives out there that actually work better. Dishsoap will work much better than rubbing alcohol, Simple Green, etc. The non toxic jewelry clean I use works brilliantly.91% Isopropyl evaporates clean. I've been using it for years.

Clean your old stuff too...
Oh and I also after wrapping my coils run them through the Ultrasonic also.
I used to torch, but when getting quality wire that's already pre-annealed not really needed. I still do sometimes when I'm making some fused clapton nano coils (34x2/40). It just depends, but if you've got quality annealed wire it's not really needed.Is torching your coils now considered old news?
I'd like to purchase some beautiful, high end, specialty custom coils. I only use Kanthan and maybe a little SS since I use it on VW.
Any suggestions?
I use good old vodka and a tad of soapy water also. However, a while back I bought the Coil Master ultra sonic cleaner, which I have yet to use. I don't use enough equipment to warrant that.
By the way, I found some stiff Bristol pipe cleaners that are GREAT for cleaning inside of your expensive coils on Amazon - $5.89 for 132ct.

Neither would I, but then again I don't use Pipe's nor have anyI would not use it to clean a pipe with as they will soak it up.
I use it clean my vape stuff though.
I couldnt imagine doing that to a pipe either. Good pipes are so expensive and even though I wont be using them, I could imagine that alcohol would ruin a good, broken in, wooden pipe.I would not use it to clean a pipe with as they will soak it up.
