Deermaster... can't think of anything in the scent eliminator sprays that would hurt your wool.

Might test spray a small spot on the tail of the parka just to be safe, but I doubt you'll see any effect.

Speaking from past experience....dont let it saturate any poorly finished wood. It wrecks it. I left a bottle on my mother's antique oak table when I was younger....and I still hear about it.
I have never had it damage any clothing though.

you must have worried about the wind.  if you "forget the wind and hunt", it all works out just fine....   :D

I have a fur felt hat. The home made scent kille made with hydroge peroxide, basking soda and soap, discolored my hat. never used the brand you speak of and don't use any now.

The guy who used to own NOgginTops told me many commercial scent eliminator sprays have peroxide in them...my crusher I bought from him has been saturated many times with Robinson Labs..it's a wool crusher... and it's changed colors a LOT..but its integrity is fine!

Hydrogen peroxide=faded camo. I ruined my favorite pair of Fred Bear insulated camo pants given to me by the legend himself by using scent eliminator products. Never ever again.  :mad:

No, it will not. I spray down every time I walk into the woods and it has never hurt my SI or KOM. I use Scent Away and Dead down wind. Not sure what it will do to cheaper wool.
