How can I get rid of bad smells and odors in my car?

Accidents happen. Perhaps you spilled food or a drink? Or do you have pets? Maybe you just bought a used car, and as the "new car smell" tree loses its power, you start to notice certain smells.

Tackling smells is a long process if you want to get to the root of the problem.

It is important to start with a clean car. And that means cleaning everything:

• Clean the seats

• Clean the carpets

• Clean the trim

• Clean the trunk/cargo area

If the smell is recent, doing this will usually get rid of the smell. However, there are deeper smells that require more.

An ozone machine works by charging oxygen particles to produce ozone. This ozone breaks down what causes the smell. The machine is placed in the car on a timer and all the windows are closed. The ac is running so it circulates in the entire car.

The car must be empty!! Ozone is very harmful if breathed in.

Afterwards, the car is opened to allow fresh air in. After about half an hour, it is safe to re-enter the car.
