Are you referring to the writing on the pipe? Just don't understand what you mean icon_sad.gif

You can use the pvc pipe cleaner plumbers use to clean the pipes before they glue them. Acetone, not fingernail polish remover kind,but the kind in a tin at home depot should also work.

I'm thinking pvc pipe is not food safe, due to the chemicals that can leach out of it. They sell large rolling pins that are. Just my 2 cents.

I know many, many decorators are using pvc pipes for many cake applications. They don't seem to be worried about either the possibilities of chemicals leaching OR the letters on them.
As I understand it pvc pipes are made for/used as water pipes. That must be safe.
Unless you are using them where they will show why the concern about the lettering?
