Title: Re: Nylon vomit smell. Post by Snow_Dog on Apr 15th, 2011 at 12:16pm
If it was free, and a regular washing didn't solve the problem, I'd say you are at the point where you may need to take a chance on ruining it by using a more aggressive cleaning method.
I can't imagine a vinegar solution would ruin it, but the cure may be nearly as bad as the problem. It might turn out OK if you let the pack air out fully on a few hot sunny days. Baking in the sun seems to help dissipate a lot of odors. Once you're done and you want to know how it will smell to Mr. Bear, just put it in a sealed container and then take a deep whiff when you open it up a few days later. Hopefully you'll end up with something more useable than a free jumbo-sized barf bag. |
