I just realized that my Strat-O-Sphere smells horrible! I can't stand the smell. I washed it out and cleaned it last night and the smell still won't go away. Anybody have any ideas on how to get the smell out?

use perfumeI dont have it though
I sprayed it with Lysol last night and let it dry overnight. I guess I'll spray it with Cologne...
Heh, glad to see someone else still uses this
There are a few things you could do. The smell, if its the same issue I had, is from the rubber balls. Take all the balls out of the tube. Clean em all with soap and water. Then, place the balls and the tube in a plastic bag with an Arm an Hammer oder eaters fridge pack, seal it, and leave it there for a couple of days.
Hope this helps!

I absolutely love Strat-O-Sphere. It kills.
I think you might be right though... I only cleaned the outer tube and the clear tube, didn't clean the balls though, I didn't think of that.
Its an effect where three colored balls, red, yellow, and blue are placed into a tube and they change positions. With the right performance, the effect is awesome.

Remember... for good magical hygiene, always wash your balls.
Be they sponge, billiard, multiplying, diminishing, levitating, growing, or strat-o-sphering, all the pros agree that clean balls are essential.
Try washing all of it again in a heavy water/vinegar wash, then do the arm and hammer stuff again. Don't worry. It's probably just the high lead content Chinese paint. They also make an oder absorbing spray at home-depot that will replace almost any horrible smell with an equally bad but different horrible smell.
