Maybe I'm overly sensitive to the smell, but I've never had this problem before!
Any help would be appreciated.
Ok. Get a big five gallon bucket. Get a bottle of Real Lemon Lemon Juice. (Any brand will work, just get the big bottle) And buy enough vinegar to fill the five gallon bucket. Get a whole box of baking soda.
Stuff one kilt in bucket. Add lemon juice. Add vinegar. Add whole box of baking soda. Let the bucket fizz and bubble and let the kilt soak for a long time. Poke it with a broom handle or something once in a while. Wash kilt. Should smell clean.
If that fails... Get something called Odor Ban. It's expensive, and it can usually be found at Sam's Club or any industrial cleaning supply. I have seen it on occasion at Home Depo, but they charge a lot for it. If this wont do it, nothing will.
