My latest experience was the purchasing of some keen h2 newport women s sandals for my girlfriend a couple of weeks ago.
Chinese rubber smell.
The rubber on these sandals reeked.
As an alternative to placing it outside you can keep it within a garage or storage place until the smell lessens.
Because chinese made rubberized plastic goods may have used recycled pvc plastics as well as rubber in their formulations any plastic goods from china should probably be given the smell test before buying.
Placing the rubber item outside for 1 2 days will reduce the potency of the chemical smelling aroma.
Not only chinese rubbers are like that some non chinese also have a strong horrible smell.
We can change the world with our wallets.
Fresh air and open space can help in diffusing the smell of this material.
The smell of chinese rubber and plastics is like going to garbage dump.
Make sure that you start with a low odor product which will make the overall process easier.
Yes what you are smelling is the smell of glue and booster.
Mel i would rather have tools that i never use than not have a tool i need.
When kept for drying bring the rubber object inside once every two hours and check if the smell has reduced.
If you need to have your mats installed by a particular date order them well ahead of time so that you have plenty of time to work on rubber odor elimination.
A temporary solution is to use a room freshener on the surface of rubber to eliminate the rubber smell.
Do not expose rubber to sunlight continuously for a long time since the color might fade.

When it comes to eliminating rubber smell a bit of patience is often necessary.
It reminds me that the rubber is still powerful and new.
We call the harbor freight smell but of course it applies to many retailers and products.
If it gets heated up too much it.
Especially the faux rubber chinese junk.
That stink is the smell of money.
