OK not the best title heading.. but i need to know if anyone has any remedies for the horrid smell that is left in cars by previous owners that didnt know what an ashtray or rubbish bin was  :evil: :evil: :evil:
every time you open the door you get a horrible 'waft' which seems to linger..really need to rip the interior our and steam the carpets - but time and weather aint exacty on my side.

My dad owned my car before I had it and he smoked too. Nasty smells.

I bought a glade car smelly thing that sits on the air vents on the dash and just kept hoovering the car and cleaning the dash with a damp cloth and when it was a dry day I would put the heaters on warm and drive along with the windows down.

It did get rid of the smell after a few weeks. Although I never have been able to clean the interior light lense. That is stained for life now I think. even the dishwasher didnt shift the grime.

I used the pink oxy spot spray and a stiff brush on every part of the interior then fabreez .

you can also use a bit of bicarb dissolved in water then sprayed onto the carpets this clears most smells works well in fridges as well.

Blimey thats carpet cleaner and washing up liquid in one week whats this club comming too :lol: :lol: :lol:
