    Important to note: this is not a smell remover: it only adds another smell, my car had a minor stink to it and I, out of stupidity, bought that thing, and now my car smells like axe body spray 😅, after weeks it mostly went away but the old smell is still there

      They claim its an odor eliminator, but it is definitely not. I bought an old truck that had gear oil spilled on the carpets at some point. I replaced the carpets, but the sulfur smell settled into all the fabrics. I used two of these and the smell came back both times. I finally got rid of the smell after using the chemical guys deodorizer spray and their new car smell spray.

      @@ABDULMVJEED I used the Chemical Guys Ghosted odor eliminator. It has a citrus smell, which is okay but I'm not the biggest fan of, so I used some of their New Car Smell air freshener spray on top. The New Car Smell air freshener says it's also an odor eliminator, but I think the Ghosted spray did a better job of actually getting rid of the smell.
      The gear oil smell starts to show up again after a few weeks of baking in the hot sun, but just a hint of it, so I just spray some more and I'm good for the next few weeks. It seems like each time the smell comes back gets weaker, so it's slowly on it's way out.

    Tip, some odors are trapped in the cabin air filter. It may need to be changed. This product works for some odors, but not all.

      I got a dodge stratus for an absolute steal like 10 or so years ago, it was fine until I took it on a half hour drive. It was like that episode of Seinfeld a smell randomly appeared and it was so heinous, I shampooed the interior and changed the cabin filter but it barely did anything. I tore the car apart looking for the course but never found it. It smelled fine after like 6 months of sitting.

      The best ways to actually remove odors are to use a low cost fabric cleaner that shampoos or steams fabrics, use it on the seats, floor mats, and ceiling (be sure to not oversaturate the ceiling fabric)
      After that replace the cabin filter.
      If you are strapped on cash, or feel like it can be solved without more in depth measure, the ONLY two SPRAYS I've found that have actually removed the smells from a car for a day or two, as they actually have methodology that replaces and removes the causes of certain odors
      -Lysol Air Sanitizer
      -Ozium Air Sanitizer
      For both make sure to follow the directions best you can, it's best to cycle the products through the AC and Heat, and then saturate the vehicle (windows up obviously) right before you quickly shut the door and let it sit for 60+ minutes.

      It’s like people actually lack intelligence in this department! Headliners(cloth), carpets(cloth), seatbelts(cloth), seatcovers(cloth)…all harbor smells and emit odor! Then plastic surfaces and vents also do the same to a lesser degree ! Air fresheners of any type only MASK the current air. Some people are just plain old cheap and nasty! They wouldn’t know where to begin!

    So everyone knows, this is not gonna work for 98% of people. Mainly smokers. Or people who have had a lingering smell for awhile. Your issue is not just in your fabric but also the padding under the fabric and carpets. Even if you try cleaning the seats the smell will come back. You will need to ask a detailer to treat your car. They have to run a ozone machine for a minimal of 8 hours then allow the car to air out. Your car needs the same treatment as homes that have had fire damage. So again theirs nothing wrong with this but all your doing is treating the issue on the surface
