    Well I asked the same question to Doug and he gave me an easy solution:
    "If it smells like a new shower curtain - then it's PVC."
    Hope this helps....

    On a serious note PVCs carry their distinctive smell for long time due to high plasticizers content; which is the primary reason why they are considered harmful for long time storage.

    go to walmart and sniff the new shower curtains. When a sales associate asks if you need help, tell them you're looking for the curtain with the least amount of PVC.
