!Xoible · 06-01-2009, 01:10 PM

Hey guys... long story short someone transferred gasoline in my car and now it smells like gasoline. we tried cleaning the carpets and febreeze the shit out of it, but no bueno

supposedly nothing spilled, but man the smell is very strong.

Thanks for any tips

You wont believe it, but try coffee grounds. let them sit in there overnight and then vacuum out.
