How to get rid of H2S smell
I got covered in water with lots of H2S in it (under mask). I stink so bad and have showered 4 times but it`s still hanging on. Anyone have special tricks to get rid of the smell?

I would try the skunk solution, 2 cups peroxide, about half a box baking soda, mix into a slurry and rub all over yourself dry. Leave on a few minutes and then rinse off. If you have no peroxide try vinegar with the backing soda.

Ozone works best, diluted hydrogen peroxide as well. Never heard of the coke thing, but that could work.

Quick question, can any one else smell it on u? I was gassed once and for a while after its all I could seem to smell. Maybe its just your "contaminated" nose and to everyone else it isn't too bad... Just a thought

Take the big jug of Fast Orange from the dog house to the shower. Make sure to do your hair a couple of times.

Citric acid will neutralize the h2s smell, so lemon juice or orange juice will work

the reason your wife can smell it but you can't is it hasn't had a chance to dull her senses yet.....lol
seriously luck she isn't making you shower with the garden hose.
i throw it in the washer with some of the good stuff, like fast orange or whatever throw in some cola for good measure and try that if not just get rid of it, only work clothes. as for your hair, rig brush, varsol and fast orange. if not working try a #1 buzz cut.

Well if you got doushed as bad as I think you did, then you have to flush it from the inside out. Lots of water and cranberry juice and sauna for a couple of days. I had the same thing well-testing years back and I didn't have the knowlege then, so it took weeks to get the smell out of my pores.
