    Does anyone have suggestions on what product or what company can remove the gasoline smell from the interior of a car? My dad had some spill in his car and the fumes are just horrible. Airing it out is not fast enough. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Light a match - that works for the bathroom.

    what?! the smell of gasoline is awesome. i love breathing it in whenever i'm filling up. if they made air fresheners with a gasoline scent i'd be all over them. although i suppose after an extended period of time it could become a little overwhelming.

    Actually I've removed cigarette smoke by placing apple slices in the car. The apple slices took on the smell. After separate 2 applications (removing the old apples and replacing them) over 4 days, the smoke smell, which was bad, was gone and didn't come back. Will it work with gas? I don't know, but I still think the match thing is a good backup idea. Just be sure to take some before and after pics to post on the board - you'll be famous!
