If you are a smoker or have one that rides in your car you might notice damage. When you get out of your car and get back in later, you can still smell the smoke. This smoke is very hard to remove because the tar residue sticks to everything. You might try air fresheners that you can buy almost everywhere, but they will not get rid of that smell of smoke. With some of them you might end up with this awful sick smell or sweet smell and still have the smell of this smoke with it. There are ways to remove this smell with out spending a lot of money on useless air fresheners.

You might try putting a dryer sheet under the seats of this car. Then roll up the windows and turn the heat on high. You will only need to do this for about 20 minutes. Then shut off your car and let it sit for another 10 minutes. The best time you want to do this is at night when you are done using it for the day as you will want it to sit overnight. By morning the dryer sheets will have removed all of the smells of the smoke, but even this is only temporary. You could also do this during the day when the car is sitting with the windows rolled up. With both methods make sure that you are not in the car. This second method will only take a couple of hours.

The only real way to rid your vehicle of the smell of cigarettes is to clean everything inside it thoroughly with a deodorizing cleaner. You will need a carpet shampooer and if you can not clean the headliner in the car without damaging it, you might even have to have it replaced. The headliner is usually damaged the most by cigarette smoke because the smoke rises. You could consider having you vehicle cleaned by professionals. They will clean it up from front to back and make this whole car look and smell almost like new. After you have this done, it is better to not smoke in it anymore or all of that cleaning will have been for nothing.

Once you stop smoking in your vehicle yourself and do not allow others to smoke inside of it either, you might find that you can cut down your smoking significantly because most cigarette smokers do a lot of smoking while they are driving their vehicle. If you can curb you habit while you are driving, you might find that you are able to apply this same no smoking rule to other places and times in your life like in your home or not smoking around others. This takes away a lot of the opportunities where you can smoke and might actually help you to quit. Just think, it might have all started just because you wanted a cleaner smelling car.
