I recently bought an SSE that has been smoked in. Both my wife and I are non-smokers, so it’* kind of annoying. The car was really clean when I got it, [think the previous owner had it detailed] but the smell seems to still be there. I’ve tried "Fabreeze" which seemed to help, but not entirely. Any suggestions?

Thanks

try that Glade sprinkley stuff that is used on carpets and then vaccuum it

Try an air freshner/odor eliminator called Ozium. It'* the best thing i've found to date. At first it leaves a weird chemical smell but that smell goes away fairly quickly and takes any odor with it.

any brand of those odor eliminators, the kind that has chemicals in a tub, that soak in the smel..those work great

Go to bed bath and beyond or an equivalent store, pick up "refresh-a-car." It'* a mesh bag filled with volcanic rock. It aborbs odors like sponges do water. When it seems to be losing it'* punch, stick it out in the sun for a few hours and it recharges.

Great stuff. I keep one under the seat of my car, and never have odor problems.

Also might wanna try Lysol'* "Neutra Air." It'* an air "sanitizer." Absorbs odors. I use it at work when people come in my office and smoke. They leave, I spray the stuff, smoke odor is gone within minutes!

wow, might be something to keep in the trunk for that mustyness smell...intresting

check for water first! thats the only reason my car smelled

My antennae leaks water into my trunk, so I put tape around it hehe... Left a gross smell in the trunk..

they sell simular stuff at home depot and I use it in my basement
but now that you mention it for a car I might try it.

Putting dryer sheets under the seats and in the trunk help too...but the volcano rock and the sprays are a longer lasting solution.
