I was at Cabelas today and saw a green bag used to store scent lok for almost $60. While I use scent lok from head to toe, paying $60 for a bag seemed a lil excessive.
LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!! More consumer rippoff!!!!!!!!! Charging $60 for a trash bag that holds something that can't possibly be reactivated acccording to the science of carbon. Snake oil in its' purest form.Reminds me of the carpet bagger and the "snake oil" he was peddaling in the "Outlaw Josey Wales".

The carbon lining will have no smell. What smells is the outer camo.

So if I wanted to have my (less than $200 suit) suit smell like scent wafers......I could store it with scent wafers.......let the carbon absorb ALL IT'S GOING TO (i.e. can't be regenerated)....and I'd have a suit I wouldn't have to worry about, anymore.

Correct? It would alsways smell like scent wafers....because it couldn't absorb anything else (carbon is "full").

Correct?

I regenerate mine like 3 times a year. The way I do it. I did not mean to start a huge dilema here I was just stating what I did with my base layers. (So Gmmat I guess we are wrong how we store our scent loc?) I got from your post you do the same as i do.

Jeff, I hear doubt in your voice as to whether carbon clothing can actually be reactivated in a dryer. Glad you have seen the light.

I guess I'm just trying to ask.....

Can you regenerate it....or not? If you can....then it shouldn't matter HOW you store it. Store it any way you like.....regenerate it....and hunt.

If you can't.....it shouldn't matter HOW you store it. Once it's full.....it's full (of WHATEVER scent).

Not saying scenario 2 is all bad. heck I'd LOVE to have a garment I could store in baking soda......or earth scent....have it get "full" of the scent....and never have to worry about what other scents in came into contact with.

If you stored it long enough with the scent wafers then at some point the carbon will become full. The OUTSIDE camo material will smell like a scent wafer.I don't know what you mean by "wouldn't have to worry about anymore". If you didn't care the SL was there , you should have bought regurlar camo. And Yes , it can be reactivated, but you should wash it to clean the outside camo.

It would alsways smell like scent wafers....because it couldn't absorb anything else (carbon is "full").

Correct?
The outside camo will smell like a scent wafer. The carbon will eventually become full until you reactivate it.
