Hey Jen,
See if you can get a skunk to spray it for you. I'm pretty sure you won't have
any more problems with that smell you're talking about. lol.
Sorry, couldn't resist. As was already said, if it's the gasket, you won't be
able to get rid of the smell short of removing the gasket, which defeats the
purpose of the water-tight container. I'd second the suggestion on the baking
soda, but I have my doubts that it will do much good.
Good luck.
Gale

Subject: [GeoStL] Ammo Box Question
Somebody gave me an ammo box with has an aweful smell in it. I have tried
many things to get rid of the smell. Left it outside opened for 3 weeks to
air, left bleach water in it to soak, scrubbed it numerous times. But as soon
as you close the lid down that smell comes back. I have even left dryer sheets
in the box hoping that would help, but the smell over powers the dryer sheets.
How does one get rid of a smell inside of a metal box?
I hate to just pitch this ammo box since it is in excellent condition other
then being smelly.
Hoping maybe someone else had and issue with an ammo box.
Thanks for any suggestions.
Jen
