Hellooooo,

Wondered if anyone has had to remove the smell of spew from their car, and if so, wanna share how you did it successfully?

There was an accident last Wednesday and basically my entire back seat had orange juice thrown up all over it. Also the mats, floor, back of one of the seats... it was professionally cleaned straight away so it looks fantastic but the smell is still rotten. I thought professionally cleaned meant the smell was included in said clean, but apparently not...

When it dried, it was No Vac'd but that just smells like its covering up whats underneath. Its not too bad when you first get in, but go shopping and come back after the cars been in the sun and errrrrrrr :down: you get the picture...

The plan was to sell this car to get my Skyline , but nobody will want it smelling like this.

TIA guys :P

febreeze. spray it everywhere and leave the car open so it can evaporate. it gets rid of smells, rather than mask them

may as well give it a go. its only like $5

my gf forgot a bottle of milk in her car for days, and there was some spillage :down: i used this to get the stench out, and it worked well.

if that fails, you're gonna have to remove the seat, and wash it properly.

Thanks guys! - gotta say the petrol and match option sounds good, but thats taking the easy way out LOL

I found the only way to remove the smell after washing it a little was really strong vanilla essence, leave it for a while and it will wear off but at least it helps get rid of the spew smell.

Like on Seinfeld haha.

Tell the spew-ee that they just brought themself a car.

LOL go and find some bum on the street n throw the keys to ur car at him n see if he will take it. Ya prob can't even give the car away now :blink:

Bum sees Jerry throw keys in car and walks away. Bum walks up, sticks head in car.... :thumbsup: . Haha.[/episode] Ehh back on topic. That sucks bigtime man. second the 'steam clean and frebreeze type deoderiser' notion.

    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
    • It's been quite the ordeal but hey, at least you figured it out.
    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow
