I've just inherited an old Skoda and I'm planning to use it as my daily driver. It's rough around the edges but needs a bit of TLC when it comes to the interior. I've given it a hoover and cleaned some of the plastics but the interior has a really bad mold smell which I'm convinced this is coming from the seats. I used to have some Autoglym Interior Shampoo but I've misplaced it somewhere. I've heard some foam based cleaners are good. What would you recommend?

If they are really bad, a wet vac would be your best bet, you can rent them fairly cheap nowadays.

If you just want to give them a wipe over, GTechniq I2 is brilliant, it'll remove any stains and help eliminate the odour.

Hi,

Yes as already said I'd rent a wet vac, plenty of upholstery cleaners about, AG Interior Shampoo would be good, trouble is making sure they dry properly.

Thanks
