How do i get paintball smell out of clothing?


Question:I have some clothes that have been used for paintall and i need to know how to get rid of the smell of the paaintballs

Answers:
Wash the garments with two cups of Baking Soda in warm water. It works like a charm in removing the paintball odors.

My son and husband are paintball fanatics and this has become a weekly laundry routine in my household.


Water and laundry detergents are best described as polar solvents. The long chain of the detergent molecule does it give it some non-polar characteristics, but evidently not good enough for your nose.

If it does bother you, you can pack off your clothes to the dry cleaners. Most dry cleaners use perchloroethylene (perc) as a cleaning solvet, and this will suit your needs. The dry cleaning solution should displace any paintball odors with its own residual solvent, which is highly volatile and will disipate in short order if you are offended by the 'dry cleaning' odor as well.

Good luck.
You need to use Javex- put it on your clothes it takes the smell right out.
