Gtechniq Car Upholstery Cleaner. I2 Tri-Clean All-Surface Cleaner for Cars and Car Detailing. Removes Stains, Dirt and Grime, Absorbs Odours - 1L

At first I thought the smell removal thing was just marketing hype, but it does work. The previous owner of my car clearly liked scented washing powder/fabric conditioner so my seat stank and it was driving me potty. There's a lot of nonsense on the Internet about smell removal & that was not going to work on modern chemical technology. So I decided to go high tech too & try the Gtechniq Tri-Clean. I was not going to try it on the car before testing it so I tried lightly spraying some onto some "poisoned" cloths that had been "infected" with the "scent". I was immediately disappointed that it now smelt of modern disinfectants like Dettol multi surface cleaner and was SO glad that I hadn't used it in the car. I left it to dry & was going to monitor what happened over the next few days before washing it out. After a couple of days (it was cold), both the disinfectant smell AND the "scent" had gone! I wet the cloth again to see if any smells returned (disinfectant smells tend to return) and they did not. I repeated the test on another cloth with the same result. Yay! Time for the car seat. As per the instructions for use, I applied the stuff onto a microfibre cloth & gently rubbed the cloth onto my car seat and left it. The temperature was about 12C and after a few hours I went back to see how bad the disinfectant smell was. Well, there wasn't any smell at all! Job done, just have to leave it to dry a bit longer. I can't comment on effectiveness on killing micro bugs or removing other smells such as damp etc but for pongy fabric conditioners, it is perfect.

Great product, cleans very well. Leave a great factory type matte finish to plastics and rubber mats.
