If you could formulate your own air freshener....

I just love the smell of ATF in the morning...

I like the smell of ATF. But, if I was choosing my top three it would be.

Tire Smoke
Nitro
Loctite

I don't know what it is about Loctite, but it smells damn good.

[Caveman Tony]

I like that hot metal smell right after you burn a good weld bead.



Weird thing is, it smells just like electrocautery that surgeon's sometimes use instead of a scalpel. Some people pass out at the smell. 'Course, that smell isn't hot metal, its burnt flesh. Smells the same though.

Or maybe my leg was on fire last time I welded something?

I don't know what it is about Loctite, but it smells damn good.

I'm envisioning a couple of take-outs where things went horribly, but way funny, wrong, from a video-shoot where you explain the magnificent uses of that stuff...!
No fire is involved this time though...

I bought a used '64 Fender Super Reverb amp a year and a half ago. As it warmed up it would smell faintly of cigarettes and beer, and maybe a little whisky. Close your eyes and you were there in a dive bar listening to some cat playing the drag week blues on a beat to hell strat with a lit smoke smoldering by the nut.

I'd call it Old Blues Bar. For her.

I just turned on my amp to let it warm up... now I need a beer.

Do 6L6's smell the same as EL84's?

Tire smoke, spent race gas

The smell of Beech Bend...a mix of race fuel, tire smoke, river water and honeysuckle.

[BangShiftChad]

That is a fantastic smell!

... not to be confused with the smell of the lounge at the Ramada Inn in Bowling Green. Wowzer...


Ron

[1badmonkey]

that would be "Dad's Garage"

40 yrs of race gas, paint, grease, oil, old cars, wd-40, pb blaster, and oddly a hint of dryer sheets.....


that there would be a home run.

Actually, I like the Wha Bah Steakhouse... man, there are some fantastic smells coming from that place. The Sunday Night Blues Jam is a good time, too.
