This Is The Response That I got Back
Thank you for your inquiry and the opportunity to share our information.
The majority of this article is right on, as to how carbon works. He
paid attention in class, but what he didn't tell you in his article is
at what temperature human odor compounds are reactivated. He makes
reference to the temperature needed for VOC's and to fully reactivate
you need to reach that high temperature and under go Pyrolysis. He
knows his stuff, but we are not making claim to being able to do this.
We recommend avoiding volatile substances because this can't be done.
There are over 300 different odors that the human body emits. In order
to regenerate the garments to have enough capacity to reuse them you
simply run them through the household dryer on high heat for 40 minutes
and do this every 40 hours of field time (any time outside of an air
tight container). The dryer reaches about 150-160 degrees, which is
more than adequate to regenerate the human odors that your suit comes
into contact with. The process of those odors being regenerated begins
at 107 degrees. We don't try to lay claim that the suit alone is going
to make you more successful. Scent elimination is an entire process.
You need to wear a complete system and have scent free equipment and
this will help to get you closer to the game you are hunting. Proper
care, use and storage are big factors in scent elimination. Whenever
there are new items on the market they are skeptics. This article also
doesn't mention that Chuck Adams endorses Scentblocker clothing. I'm
referring to Chuck Adams magazine article Key to Success with Carbon
Clothing in the December 2000 Bowhunting Magazine. I hope this helps
clear things up. If you have additional questions please feel free to
let us know.
Thank you for this opportunity and good luck hunting.
