HI, I used carpet & room pet fresh oder elimintor cleaner. It is a vacuum free foam. It works quite well. It will take 3 or 4 times before you really start smelling the difference. I usually spay it night when I know I am not going out and make sure all the window are closed. Spay it on the floor, if your seat are cloth spay it there also. I use now just to keep the car fresh. Try it :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 8/2/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 11 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 119 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $33 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 1 [B]Hrs:[/B] 14 [B]Mins:[/B] 1 [B]Seconds:[/B] 49

Get a friend to hide a piece of fresh fish somewhere in the car. After three days I guarantee you won't notice the stale smoke smell :) Brent [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 12/8/2005 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 249 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 1,746 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] �1245 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 41 [B]Hrs:[/B] 13 [B]Mins:[/B] 53 [B]Seconds:[/B] 32

My one month reward was a professional detail of my car! all the way to the leather conditioner for the seats! It was like having a brand new car...(only problem was they didn't clean the ashtray! :8o: guess they thought I was gonna get it dirty again! wrong! It now holds my spare change!)

Get a little plastic lid or bowl and put some baking soda in it. Put one of these under each seat. It absorb odors. Febreze works well, too. If it's like my husband's car though, whew! Trade it in! lol Rusty :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 12/13/2004 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 608 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 17,049 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $2128 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 83 [B]Hrs:[/B] 18 [B]Mins:[/B] 10 [B]Seconds:[/B] 13

Detailing would be a good choice as previously mentioned. Try a do it yourself kit or have a professional do it. For the time being you can use the febreze, air freshers, or even perfume if need be. Let us know what worked for you? Keep Strong, Josie _____________________ The SSC Support Team.
