How To Do Things Right

If your car has ever been in an accident that required body damage repairs you know that it just isn’t like it used to be. Maybe its just a back door or trunk lid that no longer closes just right or a window that leaks a little water. You took the car back to the body shop after you started smelling the mold from the water leak and they seemed to have fixed the leak, but the mold remains. Even a trip or two to the detail shop with the ozone machine didn’t remove the mold smell permanently.

Seems like the last choice is to get one of those air fresheners that hangs from the mirror or spray the interior with a can of new car smell and sell the car.

Well there is another alternative that weighs less than 1 ounce and costs less than $30 including shipping that can remove the mold odor permanently and only takes a couple of days to get the job not while you are still using the car. It uses a gas like ozone called chlorine dioxide that is safer and more effective than ozone and it really kills mold and mold spores too. And if you run a small personal fan in the car when it’s at home, it works even better.

Now if the mold is in the trunk you will need to start the treatment in the trunk to get the bulk of the odor source under control first. Then move the little packet inside the car to treat the mold and spores that migrated into the cab. Sometimes with a trunk job it’s necessary to remove or prop up the back seat for a couple of days to get the mold that is under the seat.

If the mold is from a window left open during a storm, removing the water with a shop vacuum or car wash vacuum is a really good idea.

If the mold was from your car being flooded, use a detail shop to clean out the really bad stuff and then treat the mold when the interior is dry.

Why doesn’t the detail shop use this stuff? That’s a really good question. It’s probably because they have already spent their money on an ozone machine that was supposed to do the job. But by the time the ozone machine has done it job the interior of your car is damaged by the ozone.

What is this stuff that works better than ozone? It’s called OdorXit CLO2 and it’s available on the web at the OdorXit Web Site. And you only need a 5 gram packet.
