Removing a Kerosene Type Odor from New Clothing?


Bronze Feedback Medal for All Time! 190 Feedbacks

I purchased 3 pair of tights that are polyester/spandex and they have a horrible kerosene type order to them. I'm sure it's from the material. I've washed them 2X now and the odor is still there. I don't want to return them if I don't have to because they were from a catalog. Any idea of how I can get rid of the odor? Thank you.

I struggled with a rubber tire smell in fabric. Nothing worked til I followed suggestion to try powdered milk. I added a half cup of powder to dissolve well in water in sink, about 4 or 5 inches deep. Soak for a few hours. IT WORKED!

You can try a product called Nok-Out. You can buy it on Amazon.
