Removing cigarette smoke from interior

[salty]

I have used X-O and didn`t think it was anything special. Though that was a few years ago and my techniques have changed a little.



Have you checked any local janitor supply shops? They might have some proven products.



Jake swears by Odorcide.



Personally i have 4 different deodorizers for different odors. I would use Ban-O as a start and then finish with an encapulator, like Febreze, when dry

Yesterday I finished shampooing the mats/seats. I also hit all the plastic with an APC mixture, and did the headliner with water/Woolite. I then applied Armor All on all the plastic, and put the AC vents back in.



Right now it has a lemon-ish smell from the Oxy carpet cleaner. I`m curious to see if I did anything, or if I need to step it up.

Give it a week, many of those products merely mask the smell.

There is a smoke eliminator made by ultra chem. The stuff is magic. Permanently will remove any smoke odor. Just shampoo into carpets seats headliner, etc.

The only real way i to use an ozone generator. that is what i use i some of the cars to get the smells out. but they are a pricey and you have to know how to use them but they are the best.
