How can I get the smell of smoke out of my used car I just bought?

Question

SUV, leather seats and a heavy smoke smell.

Answer 1

febreeze... it works wonders! spray everything and wipe down the seats, dash etc.

Answer 2

Very cheep and eazy. Get about 10 of the large size boxes of bakeing soda.Place the bakeing soda in a medium size box and place in the center of the suv.Make sure all the windows are up.Leave it in the suv at least 24 hours.The bakeing soda will pull the smoke smell out the interior.Please do this on a dry day it will work much better.If smell not 100% gone twice will allways work an really heavy smoke.Please clean all interior plastic and glass with mild soap when done.

Answer 3

I hate to tell you but it may not come out for a good long while the leather helps retain the funk then the foam inside the seats as well is filled with the same odor. You would have to replace the foam in the seats and air out the leather for a while, then dont for get the funk went in to the carpet and headliner, try to Febreeze the car daily that might help

Answer 4

First air it out. Open all the doors for an hour or so and merely allow some frsh air move by. Then get it unique: a carpet shampoo, vacuum, sprint board cleansing, the works. The shampoo itself might want to take dissimilar the scent out. And something will make it scent alot extra efficient. After that, spray some Oust or Febreeze for any left over scent. solid success!!

Answer 5

the smoke smell is in the A/C evaporator coil and /or the evaporator housing.
best and easy way... A/C technician, to clean that out.

after the tech. the smell will faid in about 24 hours.
after the tech. do not turn on the A/C untill after 24 hours.

Answer 6

Try to buy a fabrics freshner such as Renzuit or Febreeze. Spray it all the time in the air, but first spray all fabric covered areas (such as floors.) Also buy one of those car scents that diffuse fresh scents thru the air vents (you hook it to the vent)- costs about $3 but makes a huge difference.

Answer 7

Running an ozone air purifier might help.. also just a wild guess but maybe some containers of baking soda..supposed to suck up bad smells in all sorts of places.

Answer 8

Its going to take some work but their is stuff at walmart that is for removing smoke smell out of cars. ck it out. Also you can call a car dealer like a chevy dealer and talk to one of their auto detailers and ask him what they use on their cars when they detail them for resale.
Hope this helps.

Answer 9

Febreeze, especially on the carpets and roof.

Answer 10

Have it detailed inside. That should do it, but if it doesn't maybe using Ozium spray might.
