I needed a new pot to wax traps in. I had bought a 70s era camper that had very old propane tanks on it. I removed the valve on it and filled it with water. Then i had cut it at work in the saw. It stunk up the whole shop. I washed down the saw, changed the coolant and cleaned out the coolant tank. I hope the odor is gone by 7am this morning. I don't know if i can get the odor out of this tank, but its worth a try.

If the odor does not disapate in a couple of days, Build a fire in and smoke/burn it off. Light it from a distance though

Propane is a hard smell to get rid of.

I had burned it out and the smell almost gone. Then i rubbed a paste of baking soda inside of it. I'll have to get someone with a better sniffer than mine to do a sniff test.

deadwolf now that you are this far into your waxing pot try using logwood trap dye.That should remove the smell and also coat the inside of your pot

I know the older fellows use to burn birch bark in the drums
to get rid of the smell of diesel..maybe that would work.
