Baking soda is a natural odor absorber. Coffee beans are often used to extinguish smell. And vinegar does neutralize smells. With that being said, the smell of cigarettes in a car is not only an odor problem. If you don’t remove the source by vacuuming, wiping down, and steaming, these DIY odor absorbers are only a temporary fix.
If, for instance, there is a slight smell from a person smoking in the car one time, you might be able to use these methods to absorb the order. In most cases, however, you will need to take more in-depth measures to eliminate the smoke smell from a car. After all, if the ashes are still in the car, it will eventually smell again.
If you opt for using odor absorbers, you will have to repeatedly use them over and over again. But, by removing the source through our steps, you could eliminate the smell for good.
