Guest guest Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Colleen, Have you tried baking soda? How's ?? Jeanine Jeanine's Hummingbird Soap Works _____ From: [mailto: ] On Behalf Of Colleen ston Sent: Wednesday, October 04, 2006 6:41 PM Subject: Scent out of silicone Help! I have an Upland wood mold with the silicone liner. How do I get the scent out of the silicone? My unscented soap smells a tad bit citrusy & it shouldn't! I wash it between batches, but that hasn't done anything. Anything I can soak it in that it won't pick up that scent? Thanks!

Baking soda would likely work, too. Beth _www.soapandgarden.com_ (http://www.soapandgarden.com/) www.saponifier.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 Make a strong solution and let the liner soak overnight. You could also sprinkle some on the mold itself. Tell he needs to become addicted to Law & Order or the Westerns. Then he'd have to sit still for a bit.

Coffee just might stain the silicone and then it might also smell like coffee forever, LOL.

Guest guest Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 Thanks Beth! I'm going to try the baking soda first. I'm afraid that the silicone will pick up the vinegar scent too. Someone on another group suggested coffee too, but I don't want the silicone to pick up that scent either. I'll let you know how it works when I try it!

Guest guest Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 Hi, Vinegar, once dried, has no scent. That's why it's such a great hair rinse.
