Hahahha. Choking the chicken in the shower can result in drain clogging. Hair usually got shower drain trap. U should just keep pouring boiling water down the drain. if u want a better solution u could try this.

Add 3 cups of baking soda + 2 cups of mayonnaise. stir till everything is mixed. then remove the shower drain trap n put the mixture in the drain pipe and leave 4 10 minutes. Then wash down with hot water. Confirm gone.

Most clog removers are usually acid-based. If you suspect they are hair clogs, then it is advised to use the Alkaline Clog Remover.



The method suggested by koolbrader is alkali-based, but I'm sure the alkalinity of the solution.

Oh yeah and never use them on metal pipes right ?

Hey... i recalled alkaline based clog remover.... try mix with acid based clog remover if still stubborn... sure feel like "nasi goreng meletup"

And toilet bowls.

Daiso also has, but smh.. not sure if strong enough.

Yes, it works, trust me. I am using Mr Muscle and some other dunno what brand powder i got from DIY. Just follow the usage instructions.

I have a clog that I managed to fix. A clog at a 4 inch pipe. Few bottle of unbrand clogger (black color acid) and a bottle of Ace Hardware Brand Acid.

For the acid to work, need to make sure that there is no water inside the pipes.

Last time when I was a kid my dad use to use a product called drainex or drainx....good for hair..

SYABAS plumber taught me to boil hot water and add a big full bag of salt and vinegar which is optional. this can remove clogged pipe which works like magic.

If you're using those commercially available drain unclogger, it may damage your bathroom tiles if used incorrectly because they are highly acidic. I bought one from Ace hardware once and I terribly regretted it as it slightly damaged my bathroom tiles.

Instead, I'd recommend that you boil a kettle of water with some laundry detergent. Make sure it's boiling hot and then slowly pour it down to the bathroom floor trap. You may need to repeat 2 to 3 times and it is highly effective.

Hope this helps.

mix salt into boiling water and pour into the clogged pipe

Most houses use PVC pipes. Are you sure PVC pipe can withstand boiling water temperature?

kena clogged kitchen sink last time, use hot boiling water n pour it down the sink hole and it was clear later….hot water work for my sink, but i never try it on bath room water trap hole before.

I used it before, it worked for my kitchen...
Just pour some on the drain, make sure remove the cover, and then wait for 10mins and then pour some normal water...

Had this problem months ago, i pour down some acid, use that 'pump tandas', but not normal pump, like a pump on steroid, big one, cost like RM30, then use something like spring, cucuk dalam lubang, then you need to spin it. Problem solved after that

fuuu just imagine the amount of hair stuck weiii

Best method that worked for me for a fully clogged bathroom sink (because of hair and clay face masks) which I couldn't clear our for weeks using baking soda, vinegar, drain snake etc...

1. Get a small but long pipe cleaner with bristles or even a metal wire and try to remove as much hair as possible.
2. Sprinkle Power Max Clog Remover from cosway and let it sit for 2 minutes. You'll be able to hear a hissing sound when the powder reaches the bottom of the sink.
3. Pour 1 cup boiling hot water to let the powder reach all the corners of the sink drain. Let it sit for another 3 minutes
4. Pour 5 cups boiling hot water mixed with 1 big scoop of detergent and a few spoons of coarse salt.

Repeat steps 2-4 about 2 or 3 times depending on the severity of the clog.

For both my bathroom sink and kitchen sink which were badly clogged, I did the above twice and managed to clear the clog.

Pour Clorox 1 bottle n wait overnight. Don't dilute.
