Default I killed my $500 cooler

Stupid, YES.
My ORCA 140 qt cooler wasn’t filled with elk meat after the UT hunt two weeks ago. I threw out the two 25 lb blocks of ice not wanting to carry the extra weight home. Exhausted from the hunt, set up and tear down of camp. I looked to see what I could put inside to save space. NO, not the can of fuel(I know to never put fuel in a cooler). So I proceeded to put the lanterns into the cooler with a small camp stove. Perfectly packing the lanterns in sideways. An hour after I left camp It hit me out of nowhere how stupid it was to put lanterns in SIDEWAYS!
Yes I’ve tried water and baking soda soaks, bleach soaks.

HELP. Anyway to salvage my cooler to get the fuel smell out?

Thanks,
Stupid when Exhausted
