Alright! Next on the list. Cheaper than a new interior

I have used this on tobacco smells in auto upholstery and mold smells.  Seems to work best if the material has been cleaned first and allowed to dry.  Soak with Odor Eliminator, scrub with a rag, and then respray.

I even got the tobacco stink out of the vents, but that took several soakings and making a sprayer with a flexible tube to get down into them.

Shoot, no luck. Doesn't fit my car

Wow.  It worked so they stopped making it.  Sorta like aircraft paint stripper...

I'm going to try Odoban and Atmosklear next. Handy (??) thing is that we had a couple child safety car seats in the Saab this whole time. The covers naturally took in the smell, too. Mrs P3PPY pulled off the covers and attempted to clean them after our ozone machine attempt. She sprayed them with bleach, she put them in the wash, she put them in a second time with vinegar, too, but they still smell awful. The handy part is that I can test these products on these small samples without dousing the whole car. 
I'll post results. 
 

Curtis, there are many variations of Odoban for sale on Amazon, could you direct me to the kind you've used?

Atmosclear no work. :(

I tested it on the thin child car seat covers, figuring that if it couldn't do that it had no hope for the big foam seats. And it didn't work. 
 

Onto Odoban. Curtis?

Check out their youtube. Most of the videos star GRM's dearly beloved and sorely missed Ultraclyde. He was their technical director for R&D... and very enthusiastic about odoban!
