    How to get carpet cleaner smell out.

    Well my seats are in. They are clean. And they are uber sexy. However there is one problem. They smell like Resolve. I originally thought that smell was febreeze, but then I smelled the bottle and it was exactly the same. Febreeze obviously didn't work, so is there a way to get it out, or am I just going to have to let it wear off?

    could try running a carpet shampooer over them with just water in the tank.

      or just drive it for a few weeks. It'll start smelling like you again before long :p

        Pics? And I cleaned my interior with a resolve cleaner and a shampooer(?) It smelled like the cleaner for a little bit, but after a while the smell went away. Right now I have a can air freshener in the car since the transmission was rebuilt back in November of '08. And the interior smells like that. So try an air freshener if the smell irritates you.

          It will eventually go away. It always does when I clean my carpet and seats.
