Was asked by the owner of the white BMW 5 Series from the other day to look at his wife’s Hyundai i30. The grille was from an older car after a front end shunt and was quite faded.

It looked quite bad but also who ever took it from the old car must of cleaned it with a very strong cleaner as it slightly damaged the plastic.

Stripped and coated with a glass sealant which should hold out for five years.

Interior was vacuumed all round. All surfaces anti bacterial wiped, dashboard and door tops dressed with a UV dressing to restore the natural lustre. Previous owner smoked cigars so the interior was liberally sprayed with a photo catalyst odour destroyer.

I got a job offer to clean the owner of the silver BMWs trucks. He’s got eight HGVs and five vans.

He wanted one done each Friday, cash in hand.

I turned him down.

A wise man once tld me,

Thanks.

A photo catalyst odour destroyer such as CarPro So2Pure is a spray on product for fabric and textile surfaces

It uses the UV rays from the sun to break down odours.

Kinja'd!!!

All the technical stuff from the CarPro website.

!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!

So2Pure is an advance high-end grade air purification coating based on the latest nano-science technology - photo catalyst. In the presence of light, active oxygen is formed and excited on the So2Pure treated surfaces to destroy all micro-sized air pollutants that land on it, including petrol fumes, smog, diesel smoke, exhaust gases, industrial smoke, chemical off-gassing or VOCs from car fabric, leather and plastic materials, air toxins, cigarette odor, etc. Whether they are disturbing allergens, toxic diesel exhaust, moldy odor, or even lingering tobacco smell, So2Pure does NOT just simply destroy them but totally decompose their microscopic remnants into harmless gas and water vapor. The whole process of So2Pure photo catalytic decomposition is non-selective and green in nature. Compare to current popular yet unsafe ozone purification, ionic, or HEPA technology, photo catalyst is by far the most effective purification method available for air treatment. So2Pure durable coating requires only ONE single application to keep your car clean and purified at all time. Each application guarantees for a purification effect of up to 1 year. So2Pure is safe, non-toxic, pH neutral, colorless, and odorless, and can be applied to virtually any surface of your car interior such as headliner, seat, ceiling, dashboard, side panels. Furthermore So2Pure coats the surfaces inside your vehicle and attacks future odor molecules as they come into contact with it.

First understand that So2Pure is not a surface cleaner. The first step to its use is cleaning the surfaces properly. After the surfaces are clean and dry its the microscopic remnants that are left over and that causes the odors to re-emerge. This is where So2Pure takes over and does its job to great affect.

Features:

So2Pure Air Purifying system developed by CarPro is a unique take on car odour eliminators.

Allergy sufferers, chemical intolerant people, smokers, or any odor haters will appreciate the benefits So2Pure coating brings

Green technology: It works better than plug-in air purifiers or spray deodorizers and you don’t have clouds of artificial fragrance in your vehicle.

Eliminates odours including but not limited to those caused by smoke, pets, tobacco, food, gas fumes, diesel, smog, allergens, chemical off-gassing from plastics, and more.

Safe, non-toxic, pH-neutral, colorless and odorless.

Try not to confuse So2Pure with an air freshener. I will not mask or cover up bad smells. So2Pure will eliminate the odour, and continue to do so for up to 1 year.

Because So2Pure actually CLEANS the air, it is great for allergy sufferers and anyone with sensitivity to certain smells.

Once treated your car will be protected from bad lingering odours for up to a year.

It sounds made up but it does work.

Sorry. Wrong wording.

Meant to write. Was asked by the owner of the white BMW from the other day to clean his wife’s car.

Corrected.

Are you running a business, sir? Because it looks like you’re running a business!

Also, tell me if that photocatalyst really works. That would be cool.

Lol. It would be interesting if the council approached on this occasion. The owner of the white BMW and silver Hyundai is a police officer.

The So2Pure does work but it means you can’t use any airfresheners in the car as it kills any smell.

Don’t be sorry! The imagination was just running wild!

Ha! That would be amusing.

My wife would like to kill any smell in my new car. It has some kind of new car scent in it that she thinks is too heavy and wants gone. Oh well, it’s not her car.

There is a natural new car smell where the fabrics, plastics, adhesives, etc... gas off. That and car dealers spray goodness knows what round new cars to ‘make them smell nice’.

It’s okay I guess.

It’s an automatic though which I found odd for an ex-rental of it’s size.

He bought it because it’s an auto for his Aussie wife who apparently isn’t comfortable with manuals.
