I've tried it all! I can't get the horse barn smell out of my car. So I'm going to try something I learned from the Cadillac dealership. This is the stuff I used. Chemical Guys New Car Smell amzn.to/2W2gqin or if you like new car with a hint of leather scent, try this one amzn.to/3SYUr3M

I watched this video two days ago and immediately ordered Chemical Guys New Car Smell. It came about two hours ago. I did exactly as you suggested and the difference in my vehicle is incredible after such a short time. It smells just like a brand new vehicle. I've been searching for a product like this for the past 30 years but never could find one that even came close to a new car smell. This one is definitely it! Thank you very much for taking the time to create this video.

Yup, I watched this and bought it straight away from Amazon. And yes. It def smells like a new car smell! I put a few sprays on a microfibre cloth under my seat and it is a strong smells so I expect it will permeate throughout the vehicle in due course as this video has explained. The directions say to spray it on the carpet under the seats and def not on plastics of any kind. Same affect with the rag, but you can take it out if the smell is overwhelming you in case you spray to much. Never smelt anything like it in my life, it actually smells like a new car!

You can always put an Ozone machine in the car for a few hours, then run your air (recircular) for about thirty minutes before you shut it down and open up the car. Yes, the car will smell "ozoney" but that stuff you are using will then take over from there.

I remembered when my parents get a new car. That smell was very good smell in new cars. All of my cars never had that new car smell. There were slightly used when I first get it. They were about a year or 2. Only one car was less than a year when I got it. I haven’t smell that new car smell a long time not since the late 80’s or the early 90’s. It was a good smell for me.
@sstressfl

And the only new car smell that is genuinely new car smell….. comes from a new car. And your right it’s wonderful 🤗 this type of spray has been used since the 1940s by dealers to simulate the new car smell. I like it a lot. I prefer it to the scent of perfumey scents. It’s pretty darn good 👍

Lots of good suggestions here, but might I add back flushing the AC and cleaning the coils. Pretty easy to do. Just find where it drips condensate from when the AC is running and back flush it from there. You won’t believe the crap that will come back out when you’re done, and it will smell so fresh.

Have both and the odd thing is they smell very close to each other (the two bottles I got do). I take the cabin air filter out, spray a towel and put it in the glove box and run the car windows closed on air cycle to force the scent in the vents. Then a spray under each floor mat and the towel goes under the seat. I don’t and didn’t have bad smells in my car but like to maintain the new smell and help eliminate any odors from food that’s hauled in my car.

Hey Michael, have you tried spraying lysol disinfectant through the intake near the windshield with the fan blowing? That helps kill a lot of bacteria and I find it leaves a pretty nice almost febreeze smell. I recomend getting orange peel scent or any citrus scent. It last longer and smells pretty good. Be sure to take the cabin filter out before doing the process and give the cabin filter a spray as well. Works great for my ATS that unfortunately sits outside... (P.S. over a month later there is only a hint of lysol spray in the air and the smell currently I would say is just neutral)
@sstressfl
@sstressfl 3 года назад
Great tips! I was amazed what a difference it made to replace the cabin filter! So far the new car scent is my favorite and the car smells fresh and inviting to get inside. No longer greeted by horse barn :) I suspect much of the horse smell comes from the trunk. My next step is to strip the trunk and clean metal surfaces but also submerge the carpet in the bath tub with laundry detergent (I did that with an older car I owned and it worked perfectly) and let it drip dry in front of a fan. I really appreciate your feedback! There is always more than one way to get it done :)

One tip I tried: Get one of those lil bottles of air freshener that come with wooden sticks in them, cut the sticks in half and maybe don't use all the sticks (intended for household use) and use some adhesive velcro on it, that will secure the bottle to the carpet and won't spill. The smell will last couple months, as long there's liquid left in the bottle.

As a pro detailer I can say, Chemical Guys New Car Smell doesn't smell like a new car. I suppose if you're used to your car smelling like a barnyard, then it probably does resemble a new car...anything probably would at that point. It can be used to kind of neutralize mildly unpleasant odors for a bit, and allow a stronger air freshener to take hold. The only thing that would bring back the ACTUAL new car smell would be to replace all the plastics, vinyls, carpets, and mats with brand new, then let the car sit out on a sunny day with all the windows rolled up...let those plastics off-gas for a couple days...

My mom used to be a smoker and by the time I needed to use her car when mine broke down, it stank with hundreds of cigarette butts all over the interior. The only thing I used to get the smell out was dawn dish soap, some oxyclean and a water extractor. I just used a medium/hard bristle brush to work the soapy mixture into everything and it worked right off the batt. She did have cloth seats though, so it was much easier to hit everything.

I know it’s an older video but a lot of odors come from the back/trunk areas where they throw blankets and dirty clothes. You can also hit your new cabin filter with a few sprays. I wouldn’t spray and immediately drive it because it’s pretty strong if vents are pointing at face.
@sstressfl
@sstressfl 5 месяцев назад
I later tested the spray in an inconspicuous location to make sure it didn't stain my carpet. It did not so I sprayed it in the trunk assuming Horse gear might have caused the scent. I also sprayed the floor boards. It neutralized the odor wonderfully. And that winter I did not smell horse for 3 months. The new car smell faded slowly but the horse smell was gone.

I bought a nearly new Escalade ESV that had been smoked in (probably cigars, not cigarettes.) After a complete interior deep clean including steam, ozone machine, and chemical treatments there was still a slight odor. I tried masking it with various air fresheners but the very slight odor was still there. Having used many other Chemical Guys products, I decided to try the "new car smell" spray. I applied a few mists on the carpeted surfaces and then removed the cabin air filter and applied a couple of small squirts into the HVAC system. To my surprise, the nicotine smell was completely gone! Not just masked, but GONE. I wouldn't say that this product isn't exactly a "new car smell," it's more like a new leather smell. Mostly neutral and not overpowering. It's actually the exact same fragrance as the Chemical Guys leather conditioner, which I also use. Highly recommended!

I use BOTH of these CHEMICAL GUYS new-car / leather smell .. it's pretty good! CG offers over twenty different scents ... bubble gum is one of them ... but these are pretty strong stout and durable pump sprays; it decays over time, yes, but i think it is pretty good! (compared to the bug bomb, say, from Meguiar's, for example.) I like to spray it on the carpet and then throw the mats back on top of that; you could spray on that new cabin filter too, maybe; but clean everything very well first! Also, you can use an ozone generator .. and be sure to deep steam-clean the carpets (Stanley Steamer will do this in your driveway); ... the CG is very good, he's right about that!

Excellent technique. I highly recommend taking out the seats, cleaning them, taking a high quality fabric cleaner concentrate, with it clean the floor mats with the pressure washer and with great detail wet vac the entire carpets. At the end just air everything out for 2 days (in the sun if possible “it’s a theory of mine that the suns UV rays kill the smelly bacteria”) spray the fragrance on the carpets, put the seats back on, 1-2 sprays of the fragrance on the cabin filter and you’re about done. After putting everything back if that doesn’t get rid of the smell nothing can.

Baking soda sprinkled on the upholstery, floor mats, floor carpet, anywhere smells permeate - in direct contact overnight the baking soda absorbs odor. Leave it longer if you want to, it shouldn't harm anything. Vacuum it out once you're happy with the duration. I then spray my favorite scent while the car is running, air on recirculate, a 99.9% disinfectant is good too. Eventually changing the filters is one easy way too

The off gassing of plastics and adhesives is peculiarly pleasant even though it is mildly caustic. You can keep your new car windows rolled up to maintain it for a few months but it eventually dissipates. Never eat, drink coffee or smoke in your car and never let valets in your car because some are notoriously unhygienic.

Try using ozone (ozium in a can) and doing multiple treatments. My grandma was a heavy smoker and smoked in the car constantly. I got the cigarette smell out after about a month of ozone treatments every couple of days. I also ripped apart the dash and cleaned every surface with diluted degreaser and simple green. Never would've known anyone smoked in it, except the cigarette holes in the seats and floor lol Even after not touching the car for 2 weeks, it didn't smell like cigarettes anymore

I had a 1997 Camaro that I smoked in (I smoked for 15 years) and it smelled like an ash tray. I simply cleaned it well and it stopped smoking in it and it smelled like new :) Its rare that I cant get a smell out of a car. Personally I like the new car scent better than apple.

Any guesses how to get that new car smell are wrong. I recently had a huge speaker box installed in my 2006 suv, and I noticed that smell came back. Then I put a new piece of carpet in the cargo area, and it smells brand new today ❤️

Could you use your carpet or a small section of the carpet as the rag? Just spray in your foot well, for instance?
@sstressfl
@sstressfl 6 месяцев назад
Absolutely! I ended up spraying my trunk and floorboards. It lasted longer. And I realized it has an amazing ability to not just mask odors but to neutralize the odors. The instructions say shake well before use and TEST an inconspicuous area before spraying. Its possible it could discolor so test first 👍

Try using a power washer on the floor mats. I got a used car that had cow pee and cow poop smell that I couldn’t get rid of. I even rented a carpet cleaner and it didn’t work, not until I power washed the floor mats.

That’s awesome :) I could see that working well! One time I pulled the carpet out of my 79 Aspen Wagon and tossed it in my bathtub with laundry soap. I got in the tub with it and squeezed it and wrestled it. When it dried it was perfect 🤣

the problem is in the carpet and any cloth. I really like febreeze products. First, shampoo the entire car. change out the cabin filter. clean all the windows and plastic panels. Then start dousing it with febreeze or other fabric fresheners. Do it for a month straight LOL.
@sstressfl

All good tips! Cleaning thoroughly is definitely the first start. I’ve even rented a carpet cleaner from Home Depot on other older cars I’ve owned (now I have my own cleaner). That roof liner can be a real challenge. They can stain so easy or fall apart once you apply product to them. I have used febreeze before, they even sell a frebreeze car scent but I didn’t like the smell. Too much like laundry 😊 But yes I can tell you’ve been thru it before lol

Agreed and can be hard to clean without destroying or staining. I often use a light spray of deodorizing upholstery cleaner. Dab it dry with a very lightly damp cloth. No wiping. But you have to consider the material before applying anything. Always scary to clean a headliner.

I didn't smell anything from here, weird. :P Anyway, we bought a 2018 Ford Escape with 30k miles. I changed the cabin air filter which was disgusting, but oddly enough it didn't smell bad to begin with in the SUV. However, that air filter at 30k was alarmingly dirty. So many people don't even realize there's a filter in their cabin somewhere and it's probably nasty.

Just use pure essential oils, several drops on some cotton, stick it in a plastic bag that has a few pin prick holes in it, place under the seat. Your car can smell like a Balsam fir tree, or a Pine tree, or Cedar tree, or like an orange grove, or like vanilla and cinnamon, or lavender, or rose, or mint. Not the slightest bit toxic (keep away from pets), and change the cotton when it wears off. Just a couple drops is strong enough.

I've actually applied scent to the cabin air filter before! It fades very quickly. Also moisture damages the open cells of a paper filter and makes it less efficient. Its best to shake well and spray on a rag or spray directly onto the effected area, floorboards, trunk, where ever needed :)
