Can unscrew pipe after not using it for a while

[speedygonzales]

Hi I got a smokeless pipe that I did not use for a while and the resin dried up and I can't unscrew it now does any body know how I can open a metal pipe that is too hard to unscrew because I stoped using it for a while the resin dried up

Warm it and try tapping it but idk what a smokeless pipe is. Soak in WD40 or IPA then tap, try pliers and a vice with cloth around your pipe

I find a bit of acetone works wonders.

get a ziplock bag and the highest isopropyl alcohol available to you. Put pipe in bag, ad enough iso to completely submerge pipe, leave for a bit. Lightly shake every 5 minutes or so, take it out after 10-15min and rinse under hot water.

It's not a guarantee but it might get rid of enough resin to let you open it back up.
