Larry, you are a pro! Thanks again for all the useful info!
How many guys are watching this before taking out a new girl on a date?
Not date yet but gotta get it ready for the night
Guilty is charged 😅😅
Wish I could say that
No sir, i dropped beer and im selling it tomorrow, and it smells like a bar🤌🫠🤣
More like me trying to maintain my started detailing business lol. Tomorrow I got a car and customer complains it smells like piss and shit.
Excellent Video and great tips are given here. Thank you!
How long do you spray the vents? How long do you leave the windows down and fan on?
1. Don't smoke in your car
2. clean up after yourself each time you leave your car
3. clean your car weekly, a vacuum, brush down and even a spritz of carpet cleaner will go a long way.
4. wipe down the interior with APC, as long as you don't use harsh APC or a diluted APC and wipe down the residue afterwards then your interior won't mind it too much.
5.Get rid of stains as soon as possible, get a scrubbing brush and carpet cleaner then go to town after you vacuumed out your car.
6. Don't use air fresheners, if you have to then my advice is to grind up the air freshener, put it in a coffee filter and run water over it into a spray bottle, spritz that under the floor of the drivers and passenger seats... heat rises and so do smells
Do not do the lick test, not only does it not work but I don't think you should be licking the exhaust pipe of your car, there are some parts of the car that get hot, such as under the carpet of the front passenger compartment is the catalytic converters, trust me on this they run hot by design and transfer the heat.
Happy Fox wppp
So what exactly will hanging the air freshers up do besides make the car smell nice? My friend did say it makes the car stink after the air freshener dies but I thought he was just talking shit
GOOD INFO ....GREAT INTENSIONS.... LACK OF EXECUTION ...THANKS
Thank you for this! Very helpful.
Nice video, keep up the good work 👍
i have this problem that whenever i bought an air freshner, to me it seems like icant smell it, but i guess its bec of not cleaning the cabin filter... thanks to this video i now know that it should be clean too
Hello Larry.I enjoy your vlogs!
I'm not a smoker, but I left my car to be wrapped, and they had my car for two weeks. When I got it back, I almost threw up in it!! They had so much smoke fumes in it that I had to leave my windows down for four days in the garage!! That helped, but I still smelled that little stinch. So I cleaned and conditioned my seats, and that did it. I sprayed some febreeze in the headliner before I did the seats. Then put an air freshener in to top it off..
Change the cabin air filter occasionally is probably the best tip.
Thank you!
VERY HELPFUL THANKS
Where exactly at the outside intake do you use the spray at?
Can you please share what deodorizer did you use?

Thanks guys.. now my car won't stink like hangover farts for the beginning of the year
What kind a spray did you use?
Thank you for the unique tips!
No. Care to explain it? And I’m sure you know exactly what mean and useless is that you are are! Did your wife leave you for a nice man with a job?
I wish this guy could detail my expedition.
Me too
He might not but I can, what state are you located in?
Were can i buy those vent cleaner cant find anything on it
Im not a professional, but I drive a lot and my car gets smelly from time to time and here’s what I do:
1. Cleanup the inside of my car.
2. Turn my heat on high recycle.
3. Spray about 1/4 bottle of Ozium inside of my car.
4. Leave the car running for about 30 minutes.
5. Open the windows and let the car air out for about 15 minutes.
It works great and it’s pretty easy.
(Of course change the cabin filter about once a year)
Ozium is awesome stuff!
🇺🇸 Sprinkle baking powder on top of the odor spot. Let it sit for at least an hour. Then vacuum. Repeat until the odor goes away. 🇺🇸
Do you mean, baking soda?
if anyone could help me, my special needs sister peed in my front seat, I managed to remove the pee and odor of the pee from the carpet underneath but now the carpet (not the removable ones) spells heavily like chemicals despite using water + wet vac, also I took the seat out and sprayed the bottom side of the chair with a sanitizing spray but now the seat smells a lot like this gross spray and still a little bit of pee, there are a lot electronics attached to the seat so I can just water it down, I've used baking soda on the carpet and wherever I could on the underside of the seat, I aired out my car and sprayed fabreeze, any ideas how to get this horrible smell out? would a bunch of car fresheners work?
I keep my car clean always but I went to the beach one day and the seats got kinda wet and it’s smells like wet seats I don’t like the smell Please help me with any ideas I tried hand hashing them with special spray and nothing I want the new car smell back again please help me
Very helpful
The french fry in the back is making my car stink.... oops
🤢
I get migraines with the smell of any perfume and the new car I got has a smell of perfume can anybody tell me how to get rid of it completely , so it smells like nothing please ?
I just got my car detailed and the seats were still wet, it’s been raining for days now so I can’t roll down the windows, also when I picked it up the windows weren’t down!!!the seats stink. 250 down the drain
Good thing you mentioned seatbelts. I think that is the only thing I haven't cleaned. I must have spilled Redbull on my seatbelt.
I don't know how to change my cabin air filter on my 2017 ford fusion
Where is the attachment from? The one you have on the car refresher?
Try using a drinking straw or use the nozzle supplied with a expanding foam can.
can I use gas compressed air?
Which products do you recommend for cleaning and where can I get the hose attachment ?
Also can I use Oust or Lysol ?
You can use drops from an essential oil or whatever fresher you like.
Can you just use Lysol spray into the intake vents while the AC is on full blast with out recirculating on and all windows down? Or is this method in the video the best way to do it?
Thats what ive done and it does work
Just roll the windows down because then your whole car just smells like a lysol bottle and it can be a little strong🤣🤣
Larry is the ultimate
Useful video. Subscribed the channel
Kusal, thanks for the Sub! Glad you're enjoying these videos.
@@therealautoblog you are welcome. Need more such videos
A chemical product exploded Inside my car because I forgot it in the hot place and I cant get rid of the chemical smell in my car I cant drive it any more please help 🙏😭
My wife says that my truck smells like a trash bin. So now I know what to do to make it smell pretty like her sweet smelling powder room car. Thanks Autoblog. I am cleaning my act tomorrow so that my wife can ride in my truck once a year and smell the fresh scent of a beauty salon all heavenly and such. Ahhhhhhhhh!
Did you clean it?
@@Twan_01 lol no
How do you kill the smoke bacteria?
You can’t that stains into the ceiling why people say to never smoke in cars
@@frostyalaska6371 It was a smart ar$e comment. There is no such thing as smoke bacteria. 😆😆
The ac condenser is mounted in front of the radiator. The evaporator is what's installed inside the hvac system.
So how do you make the air smell good again from egg in radiator ?
Or a egg smell
Similar to how Larry showed in the video. Remove the cabin filter, close the cabin filter door. Start engine, run hvac on outside air full cold full fan speed and spray some lysol or equivalent into the fresh air intake. Shut car off, let sit a few to allow lysol or cleaning agent to soak in killing the fungus or bacteria.
Start car, run hvac on fresh air, full cold full fan speed with windows open to clear cleaner out of car. Install new cabin filter.
I never leave trash in my truck but most of the smell comes from sweat getting into my cloth seats so I keep a bottle of fabreze
Do you not run your A/C while driving?
Some people don’t have A/C, Samuel
@@its_zack6726 I understand that, but they have windows.
All I did was check my Good Smell tank and it seemed to be low so I refilled it😌
What is the good smell tank?
Anyone know what air vent cleaner he was using specifically?
You can use drops from an essential oil. What he's using is nothing special.
I use Ozium which is at Walmart, auto stores, Walgreens. It has an actual air disinfectant in it, so it really helps with the musty moldy smell that air conditioners can get. I recognized the smell in hospitals too when rooms are getting disinfected between patients. You don't want to breathe the stuff too much yourself, even though it has a nice sweet smell. I spray it in the air conditioner intake, then run the a/c on recirculate for a few minutes with the doors closed and the windows up, while I wait outside the car.
What about a car that got nailed by a skunk on the outside? Can you do a video for this? I believe my car got gassed by a skunk and i had the air on and it's inside now.
just throw the whole thing away
That goes away on its own. It usually takes a few days but it will go away. Speaking from several experiences here. The thing that worked best to cover up the smell IMO is the arm & hammer pet odor
Where can I purchase that areosal bottle extender plastic tube?
Hey Robert! We couldn't find an extender being sold separately (let us know if you find one!) but it looks like there are some vent cleaners for sale that come with a longer tube for cleaning vents. Here's one example we found on Amazon: amzn.to/2RiZM7T
Great video
I’ve tried everything to take away the weird dirt smell in my truck but it just keeps coming back! And it’s not the carpet because it’s been out for a WHILE someone help!!!
I pulled the carpet too and had a ton of stinky dirt between the floor and the plastic paneling below door
Ozone Generator is a good way to kill odors.
I just use a little cologne on my ac vents.
U mean evaporator... 1:38
Anyone needs there car cleaned, I Run a mobile detailing in the Dfw-texas area. Drop a reply
In my experience baking soda does jack shit. It's the first thing recommended on every web site and video but it seems like no one actually tests it. Yeah it might slightly reduce a surface odor, but it can't magically remove odor causing chemicals that it isn't physically touching.
Agree!
Fresh air in NYC . . . lol
That looks like a lot of work. I'll just pay someone to do it for me.
isnt the voice over from @ammonyc?
even the videos is by them
When I saw this I was like, aren't I already subbed to his guy?
My high school locker room smells pretty good
Not all vehicles have a cabin filter. Don't go ripping panels apart
If you have seat covers, change or wash them!
I knew it was Larry lol
Ozone Machine
So simply the first tip means : clean your car interior .
What if I left chicken in the car over night and now it smells
Go 80mph on the freeway with all windows rolled down.
Trying... thnx!
Best way to get odors ,especially from smoker, in the upholstery is with an ozone generator, 2 or 3 15 minutes and all odor gone. If you are a hog and your car is a trash heap just burn it down ,it’s hopeless as are you
I don’t know wtf happened to my car. I think I left windows down and next day my car stunk like hell.
Soo. Clean it.
That french frie liked good,I would have eaten it
Wtf
That's gross
Hahaha
Lol
Chick fil a bad fell over when i made a left turn, theres probably still that 1 fry under my passenger seat 🙃
Especially a large Waffle Fry. There is more surface area for smelling to sublimate, evaporate, confiscate, obliterate, or whatever the hell it is does to stink up.
No space for mother in law
Quick tips: leave baking soda in for a couple of hours...
What if a dog did pee on the seat?
There was something at Walmart called Urine Gone or similar. I lmao.
Then it happened to me . . .
Who’s needing this to sell their car faster? 😂
I will try this to my 90 miata. Car smells like a cat died inside
Can you clean my lambo?
Hey! If you are seeing this, I just wanted to let you know that Jesus loves you! He loves you so much that He died on the cross for your sins and rose from the dead so that you could be saved from sin and the wrath of God! This is the Gospel; you can be saved from God’s wrath and hell if you believe and trust in Jesus! God Bless you all!!!
Stupid music and loud hard to remember the steps it’s like 2 person talking at the same time and try to memorise what to do
Such bad advice ! Goodness do not put baking soda in your car. It does absolutely nothing and it gets so deep in the fibers and makes a huge mess.
I don’t understand how this is normal for someone to have all this in their car, the condition of your interior is a reflection of your household, no matter what car you have, from a Kia to Porsche , there should never be this mess. Only problem my interior has is coming back after the gym sweat, but I make sure I clean it as soon as I can
Alternatively, buy a new car! 😎
usually girls car are the smelliest
