Answer: No o Effect Question: Does the spray in its specified use keep or masks obnoxious smells that could occur in a common gathering place surrounded by people, water and in varying environmental conditions of heat, air pollution, etc.? Answer: Yes o Should Alternatives be sought! Sure and always as mankind and science makes progress I think as a collective we need to raise the level of consciousness that sikhi teaches you to think big, wide and deep and not small, narrow and shallow. Sat Sri Akal. PS: I also characterize some of the other comments in this thread as flippant (not deserving of wisdom available to the participants) where reference to use of milk (a great mildly acidic cleaner) versus commercial cleaners, or reference to jacuzzi, and dusting of cloth used to keep Guru Granth Sahib in.
