Be careful with how long you leave an O2 machine run inside the car. I have firsthand experience replacing all the "rubber" seals after a guy left one on inside a cab for waaay too long, with a house sized O2 machine. BUT it did remove all the bad smells, matter of fact it smelled cleaner than a hospital.

Good advice Dustin,

I think I'll be doing a 3 stage approach. Spraying with a colorless neutralizer that has live bacteria to eliminate the odors at the source for the headliner, seat backs and carpets. Next I'll button it up with a pie plate of coffee grinds added to trunk and the cabin. I'll see how that works and if needed, I'll then do a round with an ozone machine. Going to make it smell like a Cuppaccino factory. Bada Bing!

I'm a baking soda guy. I had a Survivor 65 Corvette about 10 years ago and baking soda did the trick!

You might try FB marijuana grower’s groups. They have posted in the past a few nice tips on how to remove smells. A friend of my cousin’s brother-in-law’s sister’s friend told me.

The old standby Ozium is supposed to be pretty good:

Post Zep...

Take a look at Zep products...they offer a number of commercial grade mold and mildew removers and even one for cigar smoke [ask me how I know]

You can buy them in stores and on Amazon...
