As some of you may know my mini emptied its petrol tank into the rear seats.
so now it stinks of petrol...
ive wiped up the most of it... but some of it has sank into the sound deadening and it hasnt quite killed the sound deadening enough to scrape off like the rest had.
so now im trying to mask/get rid of the smell.
so far ive sprayed numerous air freshners in it and ive left the doors/windows open whenever its dry to try and air it out.
ive also tried a sliced onion on the back seats....
any ideas so i dont gas myself on the way up to Bristol?

aparently another good one is shake and vac mixed with very fine wood chips mashed into the area, left for a few hours then vacumed up.
also getting two magic trees and leaving them on the area for 24hours...
this ill try these tomorrow before getting messy with the baby oil and bicarb... lol
