spray paint and deer hunting - 10/19/12 04:51 PM

Yesterday i decided to use ultra flat krylon camoflauge spray paint to camoflauge my gorilla climbing stand...it turned out great! Problem is now after doing that i realize that it would be easy for deer to smell, i cant smell it but i know that whit whitetail deer have an excellant sense of smell... does anyone have anysuggestions that would help eliminating the smell?

Leave it outside in the sun and wind. I would also try one of those scent elimation sprays that they claim work on scent.

after a while (esepcially in the sun/wind/rain (hoping)... the smell will neutralize. Assuming you are not talking about hunting bow season, it should have plenty of time to cure and "desmell"...

No worries!! One day before opening W/E last year, I completely painted my 4x6, 4 ft. elevated stand inside & out! The next morning, a spike & a couple of does were going to my feeder & walked downwind less than 10 yds. from me in the stand!! It didn't bother them in the least!!!

Not a smell they fear....you may have stumbled upon a new mask scent.
