Repeat sanding/sunny, and then douse interior with cedar oil. But your trunk looks to be a mix of wood and other materials. You may have to shellac the inside to seal the smell away. Polyurathane may work as well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38356705.post-4732456446067287312010-09-30T00:45:20.176-04:002010-09-30T00:45:20.176-04:00Only $30?
