Personally, I find it really difficult to get rid of the smoke smell from a car. They just never really seem to lose it if someone smoked in it even slightly regularly. You can clean the thing as much as you like, the smell is stuck with tar to everything. Behind every plastic panel, deep in seat foam, in the air con ducting, behind the dash - everywhere. It can be improved with a good clean as James is doing here - but you'll never get rid of it 100% and you'll be one hot day away from wanting to retch. The best way to view smoker's cars is like Cat N write-offs. Tradeable to the right person, but you may well have problems a week later when they're sick of the thing. Hence why rental cars have no-smoking signs.
Always be suspicious if you get in a used car and find a powerful air freshener in there. They're hiding something.
Talk about a click bait title
getting desperate i guess and the kia he selling as wrong oil in the car lol that should be the title
Morning Chops a quick tip Re Smoke and smell
Grab a nice clean bucket chuck In a teaspoon of table salt
Boil the kettle and cover the salt to let it dissolve then fill the bucket from the tap then get fresh clean straw ,not hard to find in Devon ,stick plenty in the bucket and leave in the car for a couple of days it absorbs the smell brilliantly.
Thank you for the Owaltrol discount, James.
Every little helps the channel 👍
You can have the seats out and connect battery but you will get an airbag light and will need a scan tool to clear codes but it is safe to connect battery without seats installed the airbags will not deploy.
Love the attention to detail you put in ,well worth it that's why you have a good reputation
Many thanks
Hi James. Another in depth video of all, that you go through. To get your stock to move onto the next owner. Cheers 👍👍
Car cleaner here.....I add "liquid air freshener" to my detergent when using a wet vac,i get it from my local chemical place as they come in diff scents in 5L (Lemon is great), really soak into the carper/fabrics making it smell much nicer, when dried if there is some odour left get some of the proper "Oust Air Freshener Odour Eliminator" not the cheaper stuff or supermarket own brand. Run the car in re-circulation with fan on no.2 for a few mins,switch off engine & leave doors closed for a fews hours, then before going home/locking up spray some more with doors closed over nite. I also use the proper household air freshener like Glade ,does wonders!
Top tips cheers
Great video bud, use 2k filler primer in your gun, it goes on really thick and buries all sorts, I'd do say 5 coats and block it back with 400 then 800,you don't need to go any finer than 800,my daughters 20 and is hard pushed to answer the phone to me mate (!)
Good job on the Kia James, massive improvement on that carpet. I made the same mistake when I took the seats out of a focus on one of my videos, took the front seats out realised I couldn't get into the boot, so knowing an old pro like you made the same mistake made me feel a whole let better 😂 that orange Ibiza looks nice 👍
Take the Firebird to Dean Crook! at least it will be a flawless top drawer job and not that far away!
Good job on the Kia Rio. In terms of commitment to getting into nooks and crannies to get rid of smells, it reminds me of your makeover of Doghair Astra.
Just bought some from your shop, it's great!
Bravo for doing the smoke decontamination properly instead of just bombing the interior which as you rightly said would abate after a couple of weeks 👌🏻
Those Mazda 2's are great. I've got a Blue one and is very comfortable... Seat belts go up and down, which is more unusual now.
Kuga brake and clutch is a simple clutch switch issue. There are two switches on the pedal. If either doesn’t read correctly it’ll ask for the brake as a back up for starting. If they’ve only changed one that’ll be your issue
I really enjoy your content it's just matter if fact no nonsense. Thanks.
Many thanks
James (or viewers) - do use anything special for chrome trim along the lines of Owatrol? For window trim and roof bars that are quite water stained
Smokers cars are the worst. Imho. And i’m a smoker. You’re doing it the right way. Those ”ozone things” only works for a week or two. ❤🇸🇪
Renewed a wiper blade. Couldnt justify the other wipers. 😂
How do you know they were not already new for goodness sake. Jeez the internet
9:30 couple options I’ve used to remove smoke smell. On Amazon Airvidox worked a treat on a golf I was selling or buy one of those ozone machines. Used one on a q7 and got rid of the smell
I did not find the Ozone as effective as I was sold on
Look at blow up portable paint both they work great and minimal dust and drit gets in your paint job
6:28 wd40 mixed with olive oil, perfect shine for 6+months
Another valeter said. Bumper gell with silicone spray over finish. Seals them in 6 months. I’ve Ouwtrol. It does last a year so suppose 30 inc VAT a-ok
Surely needs a paint booth? Spry it in there and it’ll be like a weetabix
Awesome prom car my yongest Daughter had an Aibourne Willy's Jeep and Dad got a Ride in it to even the guy who had some Lamboughi thought she had the best prom car😂
£40 an hour is tremendously little for a garage to be charging with overheads etc. You’d wonder how they can make money.
It’s mad that these crossovers are so popular and hatchbacks like the Mazda 2 aren’t. They’re pretty much the same size, but the Mazda drives better, handles better, is more economical, easier to park, probably easier/cheaper on tyres and brakes.
James. Anti bacterial wise. I’m using Zulflora with Jennychem antibacterial as well. It only lasts a week. And doesn’t quite shift cigarette. What are you using. I’ve been drenching carpets thanks advise not get sodden. More tips learnt.
When you see the Marina/Ital (family car of the 70's) stood next to the Kia Rio, it's amazing the size difference
I inherited a Mariana from my first FiL, what a crock that was.
When you see an Austin Mini next to a BMW one it looks positively minute. You'll wonder how a Family of 4 would fit in an original Mini. But they did.
@@Rapscallion2009People were a lot less fat in 1959 when the Mini was launched. And a bit shorter.
@@timhancock6626 they were a lot less fat in the late 70's, too.
James. Ouwtrol. Do you ever use a brush or just a micro fibre.
That black Suzuki Swift Sport is a long way from its original owner in Tayside.
James, providing your MR2 roof is an original vinyl one, could you treat it with Owatrol? I have the same car and it looks dry.
Thanks
Yes I'd use it on the vinyl personally but at your own risk lil
Once a smokers car, always a smokers car!
Which Aircon bomb have you used? Would like to try one in mine
After using it do get a can of "Oust Air Freshener Odour Eliminator". I'm a car cleaner....I add "liquid air freshener" to my detergent when using a wet vac,i get it from my local chemical place as they come in diff scents in 5L (Lemon is great), really soak into the carper/fabrics making it smell much nicer, when dried if there is some odour left get some of the proper "Oust Air Freshener Odour Eliminator" not the cheaper stuff or supermarket own brand.

Hi James I use. Car Odour Remover | Airvidox in smokers car's Pricey but does the job I get mine off Amazon
Chops my old son, I think you’re over paying massively for the garage work. Just the trend seems very heavy on cost in my experience. May be worth looking around.
I agree, using them for ages with those prices i would of gone elsewhere many months ago. They messed up his Rav4 didn't they but still charged him! It was 100% their fault too.
Just like last time, the discount code for Owatrol doesn’t work? Maybe there’s a minimum spend???
Vanish do a soap bar for stains. Shifts anything inc. bodily fluids. Clean wet microfibre with vanish bar rubbed into it shifts nicotine stains and smell is gone. It’s the nicotine you can smell. Just don’t soak the headliner. If wet extract it. Guarantee it’ll be gone. Not to time consuming. Just practice. There is no permanent fix for nicotine in air vents, ducts etc.
Worst smell and stains come from the coal tar , nicotine is neutral.
WHAT?
Love the videos James you should trade out the fiat doblo
Always away mate, saw you in Playa Blanca with the family good to get a break from work
Hi mate , you of said hi!
You work hard enough without working on holiday with the family. My Mrs would go nuts if I was talking to everyone from TH-cam on hols even if it paid for the holiday😂
@@leejonesNPT lol, honestly not a problem always nice to meet viewers Brooke gets kick out of it too
Appreciate it's probably trade rates but that's a good labour rate you get from Moors. The local independent I use is £80/ hr.
Grockles 😎 is what you mean 🤔
When you paint the car, put water on the floor.... Keeps the dust down.
Yes I do as a rule
I use kiwi liquid shoe polish in a bottle has a sponge on top from home bargains 99p and its water proof last me months on my BMW E38 ,
Just a waste of money.
@@tardeliesmagic works good stays black
kia rio 1.25 should not use 10w30 clearly states on kia oil chart only use 5w30/5w40 with using 10w30 it will kill the mpg and for the garage to put wrong oil you think they check to confirm online this is why i told my sister when you get a service provide the oil yourself as they will put wrong oil in
Does air con bomb do most nasty smells. ??? Old milk kinda thing , as in smell sick. Very clean late Megane has a whiff of gone off milk
It only treats the A/C, so no, that won't help with your problem.A clean like James did here will be needed.
@@chrispop99thanks reply !!!!!! Saves me giving this a go. Learn James early valeting 18 months ago don’t use APC unless APC friendly on leather !!! Mistakes avoided. I’m getting better at cleaning. I don’t say I valet and I use loads commercial chemicals and products and my valet ok. Nowhere near a pro valet on a soiled car. Trying. Sold cars 2 decades only now on with valeting last 1/2 years. I shampoo seats but in the car. I like use the pressure washer where can. Obviously not on seats still in car. Not so adventurous take out seats yet.
ASX has like an Autotrader rating in the 90s. Mad. I rented one holiday Australia. Boring thing. Rust a bit more than EU cars. And sell. Yup yup yup. That makes sense. 😅😅

Just tried your code it doesn’t work 😢
Code for the owetrol not working James 🤷
The code for the JS 2000 battery car booster didn't work one time for me,so waited & waited,then this other car video that i watch a lot had the same deal & purchased from that way.
That's the trouble with the selling second hand cars for you to be honest I couldn't be dealing with it there was thinking from a distance it was a ford fiesta MK1 😂 and close up its a ital marina that was really bad and cheeky of that women as you was paying the bill and the garage should not of done the extra work with out ring you
code does not work
👌👌👌👌
MOORS £££££££😅
I know you want the cars to go out with advisory’s on the mot but sometimes you need to stop spending money on cars at this age
