Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Isopropanol for freshening smelly boot liners

 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead
With a pair of boot liners that were beginning to, errrrm, make their presence known, a trawl of the internet suggested Isopropranol (IPA, or rubbing alchohol) might possibly work. So I used some with a spray attachment and sprayed the insides of the boot liners a few times over a week or so. They smelled as good as new, and a week's skiing at the EOSB did not change this. Thoroughly recommended. Just beware that IPA will dissolve some plastic coatings, so make sure you only get it on the furry part of the linings.

It is a top notch solvent, so be wary of using it on glued areas and foams...

 Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

@James the Last, …another one is shaking a load of athlete’s foot powder into each, placing in a bag, shaking well and leaving for 24 hrs. That work well, too.

Any excess, just drop a lit match in to rapidly remove Very Happy
