Bathroom sink clogged up

I was surprised. We brush our teeth and wash our hands in it only. I don't even use much toothpaste, but anti plague rinse most of the time.

It's not in the trap, I took it apart, but apparently in the strait shot down to the grey tank line. Also not expected.

Is snaking it the only answer?

    Sounds like I need one of those!

    Do you have a brand name or anything to assist in googling?
  • Have you checked your anti-siphon trap vent device (ASTVD)?

    is the grey tank full:h


    First thing I thought, but the other drains are fine. I still drained the grey tank to make sure.

    I know where the clog is, approximately, I just don't know what it could be. Maybe something like a cap from a plastic razor or whatnot.

    There is no screen, just an inch and a quarter hole. The plug will just fall into place if you try to open it just a little, so you have to practically take it out to let the sink drain.
