Hi,
I'm looking at purchasing a FJ that is in great shape, except the previous owner smoked in it "for a few months".
He claims there is no scent or any type of smoking odor whatsoever. I'm skeptical though, I don't know if I have ever been in a smokers vehicle and could not tell they had smoked in it!
Question #1:
If there is a slight scent/odor, what is the best method to remove it? I did a search on here and found where someone used a product called 'oxium' or something like that..
Question #2:
Is there an easy method for fixing/hiding a cigarette burn in the headliner? He says he hasn't tried to clean or cover them up yet, so they might lighten up. Here is a picture of the said burn spots...
Overall, it is a great vehicle for a pretty good price. This is really the only flaw it has. Obviously, I don't smoke and have never bought a smokers vehicle... Do you think I am being too picky, what do you suggest?
:cheers:
