    How would you go about steam cleaning? It's not something that needs to be done professionally is it?


    Nah..summit like this should be suffice.

    The weird thing is the place does not smell of onions.

    Its also a good trick if you have a smelly fridge as it does the same thing

    I beg to differ here.
    I chopped onions more than I needed
    and put in fridge, in a bowl, covered with cling film.
    Next morning, whole fridge stank/smelt.

    Ignore all the pointless options of onions and open windows etc simply go to a valeter that has an ozone machine, it shouldn't cost you more than £25 to get sorted.

    What is the "New Car" smell which comes with properly valeted cars??

    I'm not interested in silly "Pine Fresh fragrances" and that nonsense.

    Where can you buy this stuff??
