So I'm looking through the Sears Christmas wish book…..

and I see a cologne for men called "chrome". Hmmm, The Harley guys may buy it, but if they want to sell some smell juice to me, they need one called "flat black". LOL

they have that,.,,, Rustolium... couple sprays in the pits and you'll stink of it all day.
THOUGH.. the best smell is Krylon Ultra flat black. Its kinda black liquorish smelling.

That sounds a bit easier to apply than what I've been using. Valvoline SAE 30 out of the old cardboard can. Can't find that stuff anymore though, it's all in plastic bottles now and just doesn't have the same scent.

OK, I guess I'm a bit older: I remember all metal oil cans. Valvoline, Kendall, and Quaker State, mostly. Remember that pointed spout that punched through the top of the can? Then the cans went to metal tops and cardboard sides, then plastic bottles.  At auctions, people still pay BIG bux for the glass oil bottles with the long spouts on them.

As far as cologne goes, why not WD-40?  Some say they use it for fish bait, and deer attractant.

I'm not to concerned about attracting fish, and deer. I'm a lot more interested in another kind of wildlife.

My Grandpa(mama's side) used to run a Sunoco station back in the day.My Pops got a job working for him and that is how my parents met. He has bunch of those metal pointy thingies to jab in the old oil cans.Anyone recall their proper name???5 points to the correct answer...

[MarkPBG]

oil can pour spout. We actually sold them at the gas station I worked at in high school. And yeah, our oil was still the metal top and bottom with cardboard body type cans stacked in the displays.

Here is something to think about.

My wife can tell if I have even sprayed one little toot of spray paint in my work room.
She does not like the smell in our house at all.
Even if it was just a little touch up on a small part.

But one day I smelled ladies perfume in my garage and wondered where it could be coming from and discovered that I had a ball point pen in my coat pocket that was given to me, and that was where the smell like ladies perfume was coming from. Mystery solved. Some kind of marketing gimmick like those magazine ads that you can scratch and smell.
THEN...

I told my wife about the incident in the garage about the smell of perfume and the ball point pen  and showed her the ball point pen and she said she could NOT smell the perfume.
I took it back and checked and it smelled very strong of ladies perfume.??????

I think I read somewhere that women have….on average….a sense of smell that's 25% better than a man on average. But sometimes, they can't smell certain smells i guess. I was trying to get the help of my brothers wife to track down a smell in their house. It was kind of a burning smell. ( I was worried about an electrical fire in the old house) She couldn't smell it….I tracked it down to a light bulb in the hallway. When I got close, it no longer smelled like a burning smell, but more like bug spray. When my brother got home from work, he said he sprayed a bug on that light the day before! I guess some men have a good sense of smell too. :)
