Cleaning Glass Plugs / Gauges / Tunnels Clean them under running water, lather up, rinse well, and dry them immediately with a towel or paper towel.

Stone Gauges, Plugs & Tunnels As one of the first ever materials used for piercings, tunnels, and plugs, stone is a popular pick nowadays too. The heaviest of all the organic material types, it’s still not particularly heavy and can weigh less than most metals.
How often should you clean your plugs?
The key is to use these methods sparingly because they can remove too much earwax and dry out the sensitive skin of the ear canal. Aim for no more than once a day until the excess wax is gone, but preferably only one or two times a week.
How do I stop my gauges from smelling?
Some type of moisturizer on your ears can also be helpful. The odor will be stronger while you are stretching your ears. This is because the ear is trying to heal and will produce more sebum and dead skin. When you get to your desired ear gauge you will notice less of an odor.
