How do you remove vinegar smell from carpet in a car? I spilled a gallon of milk on my car carpet and immediately cleaned up with water, then applied a mix of cider vinegar and water.
That dried, now it stinks like vinegar. I shampooed it and have tried baking soda and it still stinks so bad. Help! I love my car and can't afford to trade it, but I have allergies and the smell is annoying my allergies and stomach.

You might want to try putting a container of coffee grounds in your car for awhile. I know it gets rid of cigarette smoke, and that is pretty hard to remove.
I have had a simular accident in the back of our SUV. My wife to be put a jug of homemade weed killer in the back and it tipped over.
I read all of your posts.
Let the vinegar dry completely. The smell will be gone. Dried vinegar does not have any smell after it is throughly dry. It will take a while for the carpet pad to dry. Put a fan in the room. I use vinegar and water and rags to wash my carpeting.
Just let it dry the smell will disappear on it own.
I had a mildew smell in my car and used vinegar and some essential oils to clean it. Afterward I ran a dehumidifier in my car for four days. I still smell really, really strong vinegar. There is no question that it is totally and completely dry.
No the smell is actually worse and this spill is 3 months old
How do I get rid of vinegar smell from my car seat?
4 bottles of apple cider vinegar that includes the mother froze & busted on my car seat. The smell is so strong.
Try baking soda to neutralize any vinegar and to help deodorize. I would place towels on the seats and vacuum it all up when you are back from your trip.
