car smell????
I wanted to know what you guys use to make your car smell fresh? I do a lot of fishing and outdoors stuff and my M3 is my DD, don't worry I don't use it like an F-150, I always put everything in bags with newspaper down in the trunk, always bring a change of clothes and shoes just in case and never leave anything in the car overnight or anything. Everything is always in the trunk, nothing in the cabin, even use anti-bacterial hand wash before I drive home and the car has an weird odor in the cabin, not bad but not fresh. Now my car doesn't smell as fresh as it used to and I've been using the same stuff to scent it, usually Febreeze or Yankee Candle scents.
Anyone know what the pro's use? I used to get my cars detailed at this place, closed down now, and when you got the car back it smelled amazing for weeks, they put something down the vents I think and you could always smell it every time you put the AC/Heat on. Thanks for the help. |

Einszett klima cleaner sounds like what you described to neutralize odors in AC system.

That's kinda what I do, but I make sure to "accidentally" drop a stack of 100s right in front of them while loudly talking about how I own an m3...60% of the time, it works every time.

So I bought a few things off the Chemical Guys website and I gotta say so far so good. The Stripper Scent is great, it smells good but does it's job in actually getting rid of Odors not by covering it up like the Air Fresheners I've been using. I also got some of their Citrus based cleaner for the bugs that get all over my JB M3. Works great. Finally I also got some Leather cleaner and Conditioner with vitamin e and this stuff seems like it's gonna be great as well, haven't used it yet but you can tell these guys know what they're doing and their stuff works. I highly recommend Chemical Guys, Thanks again SKINS333
