Patterson Posted July 14, 2010 Report Share Posted July 14, 2010 So Project WTF still smells pretty funky. Far better than when I brought it home but not great. What is a triple throw down deodorizer to use? Febreze ain't gettin it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nurkvinny Posted July 14, 2010 Report Share Posted July 14, 2010 I think I read it on here... cheapo can of coffee poured out in a shallow pan with an orange cut up on top, laid out in the car for a day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTQ B4U Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 PM Doc. He has the tools. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc1647545523 Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 PM Doc. He has the tools. Yep, I do. Clean it the best you can, then bring to my shop. You need to seal it up airtight, then we'll run an ozone generator in it for an hour. Let it air out for 15 mins and you'll be good to go.

Patterson Posted July 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 Take the carpet out and power wash it I have a sneaking suspicion this is what I'm faced with. Ugh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patterson Posted July 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 Good man on breaking out your celly, Erik! I looked at that after you guys left and saw it was pretty much useless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ansonivan Posted July 15, 2010 Report Share Posted July 15, 2010 Lots of good suggestions above, vinegar also works, straight vinegar in a spray bottle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sully Posted July 31, 2010 Report Share Posted July 31, 2010 What about pet odors? When I bought my TA, the guy I bought it from must have hauled a pet around quite a bit in it and you can tell...to this day and I've had the car a little over 4 years. I have fabrezed it, left the tops off with windows down for days/weeks on end, car fresheners, etc, and still can't get that funky stench out. Doc, would your method get that smell out? If it would work, I could bring it up one weekend. PM me what you would charge to do that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
