The guy who details all our inventory uses the conditioned air. Make the car smell like new all over again. We had someone bring in a 84/85 Bentley Continental and he fixed her right up. Then at the end he sprays this conditioned air in the car. He does my car once a month and the car smells just like new, but starts to fade off around 2 or three days later. Hope this helps. Ill call and find out the brand name it truly is great stuff.

how long do you let the ozone machine operate before pulling it out of the car? i own an ozone machine and would like to know. is there any bad side effects of doing this too often, since someone said the new car smell fades after a few days?
p.s. just put the ozone machine in my car for about 15 minutes, then pulled it out and locked the car up until morning.

let the air-con run on full powe. And recirculation mode to clear out and prevent any mold in the AC.

I just used the Zaino leather conditioner yesterday based on feedback from the forums and it does have a nice leather smell. Not sure if its "new car", but I'm pleasantly surprised. Also, went on really easy.

i didn't notice any difference this morning in the smell of my car. smelled the same to me. maybe i'll blast the ozone machine longer. it's not like i am trying to get rid of any odors, but it would be nice to get that new car odor back.
