Good Morning to All:
Forgive me if this has already been covered in an earlier posting:
In the last year, we received some clothing that was worn by celebrities who have appeared in our commercials. Recently, I have been noticing an odor of sweat coming from them. I can't pinpoint exactly which garment it is ( I have each piece of clothing or suit set in its own acid-free garment box with unbuffered acid-free tissue and no lid. Our storage area is climate controlled) Other than placing a lid on the box (the lids that came with the boxes are very hard to take on and off- so I left them off. We get into these boxes frequently to show tour groups) Does anyone have any suggestions on a low tech way of getting rid of the scent that doesn't damage the garments? Has anyone else ever had this problem with clothing?
Thanks so much
