Hi, on my recent car purchase, I noticed there was a strong smell in the interior which I belive is mildew. The windsheild has obviously been sealed on top, so I think there was a leak. When I bought the car there were about 10 different smelly things placed all around the car, under the seats, on the dash, behind the arm rest, in the side pockets, everywhere, so I didnt notice the smell until I removed all those things. Also the carpet was a bit damp.
I threw out my floor mats, put baking soda over all my seats and carpet, left it there for a couple of days, then vaccumed it up, and sprayed a little new car smell scent everywhere. And bought new floormats. Smelt great for a couple of days, but it's starting to return a little.
How do I get rid of this smell? Pretty much everything has stains on it too, carpet and seats, the floor mats I threw out were original, I had to because they were so discolored. Theres no more dampness however. I was thinking of getting a detail place to do their thing, but was looking for maybe a different alternative.
Thanks
