GW Wash ,,smells really bad ?!

[lolita23q]

hello

 

You just have to hear me out,yesterday one of my Wash (devlan mud) smelled sick bad not just a little bad, but seriously so you had to cough and feal nausea after you smelld it

 

given all the washes does not smell so good from the beginning, this was a totally horrible smell :sick:

 

now I wonder if anyone else has encountered this or if it can be so that the washer can rot?

I threw it anyway (eh not much left)

Someone played a trick on you? ....eww

No, impossible, my colors are in my home and nobody comes over

i had a very nasty smelling devlan mud a couple of months ago too. my friend said it was something to do with heat... not sure if he knew what he was talking about though.

Yup, I replaced my Devlan Mud recently purely on the basis that it smelt absolutely vile. Not the 'oh, its a bit play-doughy' or a 'little bit rough', I mean full-on rotting cabbage make-you-retch. Maybe there is an ingredient which rots, since it seems to be Devlan in particular.

My thrakka green and Badab black smells too but not sooo bad as devlan it was a really terrible smell

[Terminatorinhell]

Yeah some of my washes smell horrible. Devlan especially.

While not on topic and no offense - this sounds really sad mate...

I have also experienced this! Both with devlan mud and gryphonne sephia...although not extremely repulsive, they don't smell of roses either! :unsure:

[aekold]

I experienced the same with badab black. Not that it made me vomit, but the previous pot of badab black didn;t smell at all.

[sword brethren]

i bought devlan once, i used it so infrequently that i never bought it again and the fact it began to reek after a while sealed its fate as something i will never buy

[EmbattledSoul]

someone at citadel decided to take a dump in one of the mixing vats? my badab black smells fine though.

[Pierced Soul]

:cuss my devlan mud smells the same!!! i thought it was just me....either a whole lot of bad batches went out or maybe there is somehting in it which breaks down

[Roesor]

Don't taste great either.

I've bought tons of the new washes (particularly Devlan Mud, Badab Black, Leviathan Purple, and Asurmen Blue) and I haven't had any major concerns with them yet (insofar as smell is concerned). Taste is something else entirely (but we won't get into that...)

 

Besides the taste of the new washes are nothing compared with the old inks. Now the old Chestnut Inks and Flesh Washes...THOSE tasted something mighty fierce...

I make my own washes with acrylic matte medium... and they smell bad too (though nothing in comparison to GW)... I guess its just that the resin has a foul smell.

[KAINE-77]

Ha! Not noticed any stink coming off the new washes (yet), but the comments about smell and taste made me laugh...

 

Just gotten back into the hobby, and always used to love the smell of Citadel paints, and have a bad habit of pointing my brush with my lips and always thought the paint tasted good!

 

So for me, the smell of GW's paints always brings back good memories... ;)

[silverneil]

my Devlan Mud wash smells ok........don't taste too bad either

[NestorV]

Actually, I have experienced the same with the GW washed, especially with the devlan mud as already mentioned. I hope it doesn't not contain real-life mud in order to add a touch of realism.. I have to say that taste is pretty alcali, so it might contains salts..hope it is not earth salts.

There should be a chemical data sheer somewhere for these products either online or by request. I think they are called MSDS sheets, but I may be wrong.

[Master of fact]

DV8 your so right about the Citadel inks i luckily bought loads before they were discontinued and had the misfortune to lick chetnut ink. Blearghhh

[Hubernator]

As much as this is really daft, I've not had any foul smell from my Devlan Mud wash. However, my Baal Red wash smells pretty weird whenever I use that...

Chestnut tasted bad? I may have to go try some before I go to bed.

 

Badab is the worst tasting I've had so far. Maybe they're made with horrible scents to try and discourage children from getting too involved in the hobby.
