Some of you guys are so caught up in wanting to call somebody a dumb-axx you bypass the national forest looking for a tree to hang your stand in.

wouldnt the carbon be loaded with your scent wafer oder? Defeats the purpose of carbon doesnt it?

ORIGINAL: GMMAT

I was mine in sport wash.....dry it with scented sheets.....and store it with the same scented wafers. I then activate it with my dryer.
Yes TeeJay..I agree with that stament.
I agree. There is no room in the carbon for your human odor to absorb. Defeats the whole agenda of using carbon.

If it works like the Mfgr claims, than as soon as you use your scent sheets, wafers and sprays; the carbon is saturated. No room for it to absorb human odor. You are not using the carbon clothingas it was designed to work. It is saturated with scent before you even hunt.

Well>?????

I wash it to get the scents OUT....and dry it to get it DRY. I store it with the rest of my stuff and put it in the dryer, again, to activate it.

That's EXACTLY what I told you I did, earlier.

Well it has been proven to me that I need to get me some of this stuff.
By no means am I saying that you should not buy it, but how has it been proven to you?

There are tons of info on this subjest on this sight. I would recommend reading some findings if you have not, and re-consider the cost benefit analysis.

let me help out, this is not a post about ScentLok

GMMAT steps

1. I was mine in sport wash.....
2. dry it with scented sheets.....
3. and store it with the same scented wafers.
4. I then activate it with my dryer.

Although this is not what I would do, if it works he is fine. His last step before he goes out isthe dryer.
For guys who do not use it you sure think you know, LOL

Again just helping out a fellow groupie

I truely do not understand you Jeff. A thread was created and people gave their opinions on how the stuff works. NOT ONE NAME was mentioned, no one was "called an XXX-hole" TeeJay asked a question, and some of us answerred it to the best of our ability.

You are so defensive and self absorbed that every post or comment on this board is about, or referencing you.

I don't wish to hijack this thread and argue with you..but man get over youself.

I know I went through many sets of it in the early 90's and you dont reactivate carbon clothing. The cloth material couldnt hold up to the extreme temps you would need to reactivate it, thats if the washing machine didnt wash it all out.
