Mold on Car Interior

**_Cathy_** · January 31st, 2019 09:37 PM

My car grew mold on it's interior a few months ago. I wiped it off using CG's interior cleaner. The mold has not grown back but I can still smell it. I have activated carbon bamboo charcoal under the car seats. It does not seem to help though. I'm also worried that it can be bad for my health?

I plan to leave my car out in the sun this weekend. Hope that kills the remaining mold

that might help. just keep the windows shut closed para mas maiinitan ang loob.
i thought that you are doing it periodically.?

Yes, every few months. I don't remember the last time I left it out in the sun though

I'll park it on the street para mainit talaga. The smell really bothers me

while still hot inside, you may turn on the fan without the AC ON to circulate the hot air inside the evap and vents for a couple of minutes.

The mold could have grown in the vents, inside the dashboard, under the seats and in many other spots.

Had the same problem a few months ago.

Spray some Lysol. When using the car drive with all windows down unless madami snatchers sa area.
