That's the same stuff I buy. Sota gave me a little over a pound of activated carbon to use. I'll be set for a while.
Wow, that's a lot of Sitka gear, I'd call them and say my clothes smell like fox urine and I want my money back, then go get some cheaper clothes and a new bow. Just kidding! Vinegar and baking soda, used this on my clothes that were sprayed by a skunk. Let it soak overnight, then wash in scent eliminating soap a couple of times and it will go away. Turn it inside out to keep from fading. Next time wear something a little less expensive when dealing with a pint of anything!!! Tried tomato juice and many other things and they didn't even touch the smell, only white vinegar and baking soda took the edge off and washing them in scent killer gold a couple of times, no problems after that. Shouldn't you have clothes that expensive locked away somewhere? Fort Knox maybe!
It will come out in time. I would alternate between washing and several hours of ozone and do that a few times....it will be fine.
Cause i live in the sticks the thought did cross my mind about that one is gonna tear the **** out of my clothes while on the clothes line last night!
The thought of selling it all has crossed my mind. My friend did offer my really close to what I paid for it before it was soaked in fox urine. If I can't get the smell out Ill sell it to him! I'm do really like the looks of the new under armor gear!
soak it in cold water with heavy dawn soap for a few days stirring it around a bit everyday! drip dry outside then soak it in warm water for a day then throw it in the washer on spin cycle soaked!!!!! put it in dryer with scent free dryer sheets... worked for me when i got sprayed one morning heading to the stand....
If you still haven't got it out call their customer service # and explain the situation honestly and ask if you send it in what they can do to help...they'll probly charge you 50$ to clean it. Maybe. Its worth a shot if they can help they will. Or if you own an ozonics unit stuff the clothes and the unit in a big box and let 'er eat.
I would soak it in the carbon synergy or go to Walmart and go to there aquarium stuff and get some activated carbon crush it and use that. The ozone generator I think would also do the job.
Use an enzyme detergent. You can buy the stuff made for pet urine removal or just buy some biz detergent. Soak the stuff in warm water and biz. It will smell worse before it gets better but the enzymes work.
I'm still not sure if I can for give myself! every thing I've tried has taken the edge off the smell but now it's just respecting the cycle till it's gone Sent from my arrow using Mathews!
All I gotta say I have tears in my eyes some from the comments and some feeling sorry for you. Think about it this way u could be in that poor girls shoes from England soccer team that scored in her own goal.
You liked it enough to spend that much now you want to sell it already? Who cares what other people think, it's your money. Call Sitka. See what they recommend or at least what you shouldn't put on the material. A combination of soaking, air drying, and ozone will probably help a lot. Still have plenty of time before the season starts so get started now.
Yeah I was wondering the same thing. Did you get it all out yet or are you still repeating the process until it comes out?
