Thread: Removing Cigarette Smoke Smell From Car

    RE: Removing Cigarette Smoke Smell From Car

    Had to do this with my one of my sisters cars when she got it, gave it the works wet vacced everything and steam cleaned the headliner and to get that last element of stale smell out I put a California scent under the seat where the vents are, turned the heating on full blast and left it for a few minutes to embed the smell around the interior

    Gave it a good clean over the weekend.
    Steam cleaned all the interior fabrics including the headliner, then wet vac'd the mats and carpet.

    Hopefully it done the trick.

    Want to try buff the E90 to try remove sun cream hand prints and fit the OEM mudflaps to it.

    RE: Removing Cigarette Smoke Smell From Car

    I used to smoke quite heavily and my car smelled like an overflowing ash tray. When I quit, I put lots of baking soda in the ash tray. When not in use, I left the car windows closed so the baking soda could do its magic. Change the baking soda frequently. Took about two weeks but it really worked

    cut an onion in half and leave it in the car for a day..works wonders.
    Have spilled sour milk in mine and tried baking soda and cleaning products to no avail. The onion did the trick perfectly

    Gonna try this baking soda stuff. It's not as bad as when I bought it but I wish I'd read this when I was repeatedly cleaning it :/
