There is no doubt that washing is the most effective way to clean the interior cabin of your Lincoln Capri. The foul and stinky smell that stubbornly stayed in your car will surely be done away with. However, the use of some not-so-good-smelling cleaning agents may overpower the natural clean scent that you are supposed to enjoy as a reward for the hard cleaning work that you've done. Here are some of the most effective ways on how to keep the fresh smell in the cabin:

Foul smell will still linger in the cabin if the air vents were left uncleaned. Why? Because the air vents are the passages wherein the air that circulates in the interior passes through. If you really want a truly fresh smelling cabin, you have to carefully clean every single detail, including the intake and interior air vents. This is perhaps the reason why the process of deep and careful cleaning of vehicles is called detailing.

The best result of spraying a nice scent is achieved after all the bad smells were gone. Otherwise, the spray's fragrance will simply mix with the foul smell, and create a weird one. Spray under the carpet or floor mats, and from behind the back seats. Also spray in areas where you store some of your stuff as well as in hard-to-reach areas, since the smell is most likely to linger in these places. Spray just the right amount in order for the fragrance to not overpower you. Aside from aerosol type of air freshener, you can also use gel, reed diffusers, or you can make your very own air freshener.

Dryer sheets are not limited to keeping your clothes smelling fresh. The interior cabin of your Lincoln Capri can also benefit from it. Keep one under each seat. It will work best if you are using seat covers that are made of cloth. You can also keep one under your carpet. If the scent of your dryer sheets is gone, simply replace with new ones.

Riding with kids, two other persons, and a pet will definitely leave trash from where unwanted smell will start. That is often unavoidable if you love the company of other people. To avoid the result of any trash in the cabin, immediately remove all of them. And if it is possible, don't allow food, alcoholic drinks, and smoking inside your Lincoln Capri because they leave the most undesirable smell.

Treating the bad smell as soon as possible will save you from the agony of having to travel like you are feeling car sick. Keep a pack of baking soda always at hand. You can sprinkle it on the affected area in place of applying commercial deodorizers or car cleaners. The baking soda will absorb the foul smell, and would leave no trace of irritant after you dry vacuum it. But if the smell really stinks, remember that the best way to bring back the fresh scent is by thorough cleaning.
