jonnythan:So much for serious replies
The Kraken:Well, I suppose the vinegar, if added with a bit of oil, would be a perfect dressing for that little fungus/mushroom salad growing between the toes !!! :l:
The Kraken:....a nubile nymphet with a bar of Dove and scrub brush and long, black silky hair flowing over her shoulder as she sits, in her wet, crimson sarong next to the cascading stream . . .
Of course, the king-o-stink is right!pipedope:For bootie stink there are two stages, prevention and cure.
When they already stink, you need the cure and the best one is "Sink The Stink" tm, IMNSHO. After the treatment with STS you are on to the prevention stage.
For prevention you need to DRY the booties as soon as possible after every use. If they are DRY within a few hours of use they will not stink.
Trust me on this, I did about 5 years of 200 diving days a year commercially with rec dives on top and it works.
I use a bootie dryer that I made from PVC electrical conduit and a 12VDC fan. This hangs the booties toe up and open end down and blows air through them so they dry very fast.
As long as I put the booties on the dryer within a few hours I never had a stink problem. If they were wet overnight it was stink city and time for STS.
kulot:How do you get rid of the awful damp odor that permeates in booties even after they've dried off?
kulot:I'd really appreciate a serious reply. Thanks.
