Ino longeruse the stuff anymore but I know that the carbon actually does have a smell....It smells a little like wet paint. All suits I have smelled have the same exact wet paint smell.

Well, I owna set of Scent-Lok, and if I recall it so do not wash with ANY type of detergent. I usually rinse mine to keepfrom becoming soiled, then spin dry'em, put'em in plastic sealed bag. Haven't been winded more than two or three times in the last 2 years.

Once you start getting winded when wearing the suit, you won't worry about it too much....

You are mistaken. The suit can't smell. It has scent blocker. It is scientifically proven.

In actuality you are supposed to dryer dry them to activate the carbon in it, I have read that you cannot get the dryer hot enough to actually reactivate the carbon fully, BUT, it will help activate it some.. I have spent a ton of money on scentlok and scentblocker suits and stuff and yes I do believe that if you shower with scentkiller soap and use body wash and scent killer on your clothes that you will be just as well off but it is a confidence thing...

I thought a few universities did some research on killing human scent and they found that the spray was the best....cant remeber where i read it though

I recalled something like that and I want to say it was Rutgers who did the study. I'm reading a book called bowhunting pressured whitetails and the author mentions his scentlock suit at every chance. While the book has great info I will not be rushing out to buy one of these.

Scent control is important and necessary to kill mature deer. However, you don't need a $300 suit to accomplish this. Use the $10 spray and save your money to buy your nagging wife whatever her heart desires. ;)

Maybe it is the smell of getting ripped off.I dont even use the spray anymore, just rubber boots & climb 20-25ft

It can't have that scent either. Totally impossible. It has scent blocker remember.
