Literally. I got Trevor’s painted Peak from this kid a few days ago and I love it to death already but the problem is that it smells like unwashed armpit. I took it apart and scrubbed it with soap and washed it with water, rubbed it with dryer sheets, and even stuck in a freezer (lol, I don’t even know why I did that… thought the cold would get it off). It didn’t work and it still smells like gang green. Anyway, do you guys know if there’s a way to clean yoyos without dipping it in harsh chemicals? I don’t want the paint to come off so I’m being extra careful as it’s chipping profusely already. ---

Leave it in a bag of charcoal for a few hours. FYI- stinky underarms smell like a bag of onions. It’s also weird that everyone’s BO has a similar smell. Kind of funny right? ---

Soak it in Soy Sauce! Lol Or Catsup Or, if it actually smells like an Armpit, coat it with Deoderant. And now a whole New category of yoyo condition emerges. Mint or not mint. Wobble or no wobble. Vibe or no/or minimum vibe. Drummmmmmmm Roll please \<\> Does the yoyo Smell like a Rose or STINK like an armpit? No doubt the guy you got it from was well aware the yoyo smelled ‘funny’. That Reality also smells like an Armpit. ---

This reminds of an episode of Seinfeld where his car smelled like BO because the vallet guy had BO and he couldn’t get rid of the car! ---

Kind of funny right? FF: BO is actually caused by bacteria eating the oily sweat that our body produces and then flatulating. So our BO smells similar because it’ all bacteria fart… :wink: ---

put your own scent on it… go to walmart candle section… they have a section of essences or extracts that people use to make their own scented candles and stuff… pick one that smells good… rub on the yoyo for a bit… let the smell soak into it a bit… wipe off the excess … you could use mint smell and it will forever be a “minty throw” ---

Hmmm, would baking soda be to abrasive? I bought my house from an Indian couple, and everything smelled like curry. I had to scrub down the inside of the fridge with water and baking soda. Took me a month to get rid of that smell. 😛
