Default washing carbon

If I wash the odor eaters in my boots and them put them in the dryer the carbon will be reactivated right? Sometimes I just have to stir the pot!

If ya don't use dot 3 in a dot 3 system the rubber components will swell to the point where the brakes wont release when engaged. Major fire hazard and a total brake over haul is needed. Different fluid.

Different carbon and different process.

you cannot reactivate the carbon.....what you do is break the bonds between the carbon molecules and your scent molecules or another other molecule floating around....
