I just bought my truck last week and i LOVE the new car smell... its the leather but i dont wanna lose the smell its better than any air freshener but idk how to keep it smellin like that or if theres a certain product that has that specific scent... any ideas?
Nothing, just keep it clean. We own a 2009 Altima that still smells like new. Keep it dusted and vacuumed and wiped down and the smell will last a while. Sent from my iPhone4 using Tapatalk
haha I wish my truck still smelled like that. There isnt an air freshener is the world that can get that smell back though
Like bama said you have to keep the leather clean to keep the scent. Like if you drive it everyday clean it everyday.
VOC That new smell is from all the VOC's evaporating from the interior parts, carpet, trim, headliner, plastics, ect. Similar to chemicals that the huffers use like what is in gold spray paint. People get a high from smelling new vehicle interiors. Here is a short list of VOC's that are in the materials of vehicle interiors. Acetaldehyde Acetone Benzene Nonanal Toluene 1,1,1-Trichloroethane Chloromethane Ethylbenzene Formaldehyde m- & p-Xylenes n-Decane n-Dodecane n-Undecane o-Xylene 1,2,4-Trimethylbenzene d-Limonene Hexanal Phenol Ethyl Acetate Tetrachloroethene 2,2,4-Trimethyl-1, 3-Pentanediol Diisobutyrate 2-Ethyl-1-Hexanol Nonane Ethanol 2-Propanol Chemicals used in leather processing: http://www.tanschool.co.za/chemicals_used_in_leather_processing.html
I can't tell ya how to keep it but I can show you how to loose it! My wife is always sayin it smells like dog in my truck...lol I fabreeze it regularly!!
Go ahead and have some sweaty sex in it to get the new smell out of the way and then hang one of these:
