Does the unpleasant odor remain after the sealant dries?

It is made with glacial acetic acid (strong vinegar smell). The odor dissipates as the silicone is exposed to air at room temperature. Not a very good option for gluing ceramic as it is flexible.

That odor is acetic acid released during curing. Google it for more information. I used this product to correct a leak in the high-mount brake light on my pickup truck (curse you, Ford). I could smell it from several feet away, and it lingered in the cab a few days, too. Familiar (though not pleasantly so) as "stop bath" if you've ever processed film or prints.

I don't notice any lingering odor and actually think the odor initially smelled upon application not anywhere near the odor noticed fom many others i've tried. This seems to have a fresher odor than others. I was quite suprised, as I've tried so many over the years. I believe this is the only one I will purchase if needed in the future and i have 6 indoor cats.

No. there is no odor from the product. I don't think it masks the odor either but eliminates it.

I haven't noticed any smell, I'm happy with it. I didn't remove the adhesive though, as I found it doesn't move around until I want it to.

It is after it's totally dry, but while wet the smell can be pretty noxious. I would definitely not apply it directly to the face but if you are making a mold than it should be fine. I made a couple masks myself and have worn them for short amounts of time and there's been no problems. Hope that helps

Yes there is no odor at all, and you can hardly feel it is on your skin once it dries. No oily film whatsoever.

Like the others, there's not much of an odor associated with ours. However, don't forget to put water in the bottom of the barrel from time to time, and put a stopper in it as well. If you don't it will dry out and the bands will fall off!

not really. After buffing, the smell should disapate in couple hours.I find the most odor stays in the house from the applicator and rags used. put them outside.

It has the 'new' smell when first opened. After a few uses the smell goes away.

Hi, I would try cleaning it with white distilled vinegar. It will kill the smell if you get it into/under the gasket/seal. Hope this helps.

Yes, when opening there was a chemical odor. I let it sit out for a few days (7 days) and it was gone. Never smelled again.

It does initially. In my case, my new bottle smelled like rubber for less than a week and then the smell disappeared as I used it regularly. But its not unbearable super strong rubber stench. well, I'm on to my second one, that says something. :)

Not if it is in good condition and fully adhered. If it is loose, remove. Clean area first before applying new sealant.

It does not have any odor, the liner is thin. its supposed to be. It works well to keep your trunk clean and protect the interior of the trunk, personally I put my briefcase and lunch box in and out every day, groceries etc and it does a great job of keeping any moisture from spills or liquid that you may get in there also. Its a liner, liners are thin. it will keep your trunks interior looking new.

Ah yes it has an odor, but it dissipates rapidly. It does feel cold when first applied.

Mine had a little odor when arrived. I left it open for a few days then it's gone.

I have not noticed any odor when using this product. When I use this to make a once-weekly mask, I combine with a little bit of water in my palm. It makes a gritty paste (fairly dry) which I then apply to entire face, avoiding the eye area. I leave on for 15 minutes and rinse with cool water. It leaves your face feeling silky smooth.
