Spilt milk!

dbrookf

Have spilt a small quantity of milk on my back seat and it absolutely reeks! Have tried steam cleaning, have tried bicarb of soda with no luck. Have approached a car valeting company who said due to it being spilt milk they were reluctant to get involved 🥺 anyone had any luck with this catastrophe?

Try a scrap yard. For a new back seat.

Sell the car.

Preferably to an Anosmia sufferer.

Try some enzyme based pet odour remover. Made for getting rid of dog or cat wee. Or if you're prepared to wait, it should eventually break down and stop smelling on its own.

This.

The milk has seeped deep into the seat. It's not just the cover fabric.

You may be able to get it cleaned, but you'll need to dismantle it and clean everything separately. By far and away the easiest solution will be to replace it.

Spilt milk on the carpet of a car years ago and i had to replace it in the end there was always a smell to it.

I tried in the car and that didnt work, took it out and washed it in the bath and that didnt work, left it hanging on the line for a week in rainy weather and there was still that smell.

Evil stuff milk...

+1 for selling it

Use an air freshener? It won't fix the problem but will mask it with a more pleasant odour.
