I have a reel of uncut spiral steel boning that I've had for a while, still
in the bag the shop put it in. I took it out last night because I want to
use it for a wedding dress I'm making for a friend, but it seems to have a
really strong, acrid smell to it. I know it will be in a casing and below a
couple of layers of fabric, but as it's a wedding dress I don't really want
the bride to be able to smell it! Has anyone else had this problem and is
there a solution? I don't want to clean it with WD40 or anything, as
obviously that could leave marks on the fabric. Would it help if I just
"aired" it?
Any ideas gratefully received.
Kate
