How To Remove Stink Perfume Smell From Vintage Fountain Pen?
kealani posted a topic in Fountain & Dip Pens - First Stop
I have just received a beautiful restored Parker Vacumatic in the mail from Ebay. Got it for $83. It has a nasty strong perfume odor on the body and cap. I tried cleaning it with windex, light laundry soap and soft sponge, and alcohol wipes. Also tried "Pet Odor Remover" which normally takes any organic smell away. And, it still reeks so bad that my hand smells from holding it. Questions: 1. Can the smell be removed? . . . How? 2. Is the smell absorbed into the plastic? 3. Should I just try to return it? Thanks for your help. jim -
Has anyone else seen this new travesty? At least it can accept a Renew-Point, if you buy the adapter. And the price 🤣
