Whether you accidentally spilled something in your Honda or there’s just a funky smell lingering in the air, it can be ridiculously frustrating to find your nice car suddenly has a bad odor to it. So, if you are planning on getting that weird smell out of your car, we have a few tips for you. Here’s how.

Make your car smell fresh again

Sometimes, covering up the odor of your car with air fresheners just doesn’t work. When that happes, you know it’s time for more drastic measures. Start by clearing everything out of your car. Bags, books, even the floor mats. Get everything out until your car is as empty as it was the day you got it. Then, you can start cleaning.

  • Vacuum everything.
  • Dust the dashboard. You’d be surprised at how much gunk can accumulate there!
  • Baking soda is your friend. Sprinkle some across the upholstery and wait for 10 minutes. Then, vacuum it up. If you want to learn more about how you can clean the seats in your car, check out the blog we wrote here.
  • Car cleaning kits can also go a long way to make your vehicle smell fresh once more.
  • Replace your vehicle’s floor mats
  • Get the inside of your car professionally cleaned. It can be a bit pricier than doing it yourself, but many people find bad smells are enough motivation to save up for it.
