Eliminating cigarette smoke in a car

Post by Jesus_man »

I bought a car last month in AZ. Salesman said it was a non-smoker. Lied (shocker!). So now I need to deal with this. Anyone have success with anything budget friendly? I'm looking at products like Ozium, but I wonder if I shouldn't try a cheap ozone generator. Thanks!

Had that happen with my Audi. I've had good luck with just giving it time, but I've got a poor sense of smell. Took a couple of weeks but the smell went away. I also tend to drive with the windows down when it's warm.

It's now starting to warm up a bit and I'll be airing it out as well. But It's been in my possession for 6 weeks now and the smell doesn't appear to be getting any better.

You could try renting a ozone machine 24hrs & almost any smell is taken care of. Friend of mine used this method on cars & houses he got into some grizzly stuff.
