You know the smell. The musty, gym bag smell when something gets wet and doesn’t dry out quickly and properly. It’s gross and it is hard to get out. Just like any other material, your car seat covers can harbor odors if they are not cared for properly. So if you’re wondering how you can eliminate odors from your car seat covers, check out the info below.
Preventative Maintenance
The best way to eliminate odors is to prevent them from occurring in the first place. Once an odor is noticeable, you already need to go into cleanup mode. It is much easier to take small steps to prevent odor before it becomes a problem.
That first step is to wash your car seat cover on a regular basis. Not only does this extend the life of your car seat cover, but it also helps to prevent odors. You can use Wet Okole’s shampoo for this to remove any organic residue, micro-organisms, and salt. You don’t even need to remove the car seat cover to wash it, since it is waterproof. Now, if you want to use some home products to wash your car seat, we do need to tell you to avoid using bleach and detergents that contain bleach. You should also avoid using a brush or a machine to wash the cover.
Remember, just because the car seat cover is waterproof, doesn’t mean it can’t harbor odors. If you spill a milkshake and decide to just give a quick wipe, you are still leaving residue that you can’t see. And we’re all very aware of how bad spoiled milk smells.
Eliminating the Odor
So you didn’t heed our first warning about preventing odor? That’s fine. Wet Okole makes a product specifically for odor elimination. It is called MiraZyme and its sole purpose to to rid your car seat cover of nasty odors. This 100% natural and 100% biodegradable microbial product is an odor eliminator.
