How do u get old smell from a car?

Question

My car has an old odor in it. I bought it from a salvage yard. I need help!

Answer 1

First I would get it professionally cleaned. If the smell still exist sprinkle baking soda on the carpets and let stay for couple days, and vacuum up. It that doesn't get get, place some white vinegar in a small open container (sit it where it won't spill) and that should do it.

Answer 2

I put a box of dryer sheets under my seat, Gain smells the best, my friend puts hers right on the floorboard so when her air or heater is on the air blows on the sheets. She smokes in her car and if it helps that it will surely help old odor

Answer 3

Spray febreeze all over the interior and carpeting so that it's a little wet, leave all the doors open to let dry and it should be fine. If that doesn't work, take it to a detailing place and have it shampood
