Why not remove the odor in the car instead of covering it with horrid scents?

Forgive me, I'm not trying to be rude or anything but we have 3 cars at home, two are 10 years old and mine is 15 - none of them smell of anything unusual or unpleasant.

If there's been something spilt onto fabrics you may need an Enzyme based active odor eliminator to kill the source first, shampoo/vac carpeted mats etc.

For regular interior maintenance I use Gtechniq Tri-Clean which sanitises hard surfaces and fabrics killing bacteria and above all else NEVER eat or drink in the car.

Not a fan of air fresheners for cars.

autosmart "bio brisk" for carpets / fabric seats is Very good at removing the cause of oudurs as well
you can use it in a hand sprayer, brush out the carpets/seats with it on Then wet vac it out, or use it in a full on carpet washer/extractor machine. Find it on Ebay/amazon or Direct from autosmart/local autosmart rep,, its Worth it

Gtechniq Tri-Clean is Brilliant on plastics , door cars, etc etc AND can be used on leather. perhaps The best "all purpose cleaner" i have used for interiours ,and i have Tried far too many of them.
