Diesel Fuel Stain and Odor

RE: Diesel Fuel Stain and Odor By Sailor Al (Guest Post) I've heard that mothballs will neutralize (or mask?) the diesel smell. I've put mothballs in the bilge of my boat where there is always a little diesel fuel leakage and it does seem to help. But if I was in your situation, I would definitely get rid of the seat.

I haven't had this problem and haven't tried this, but I do know of people who swear by these products. The first is Stain Pro Grease, Tar & Gum Remover, a high-powerd d-limonene that removes tar, grease, motor oil, and adhesives from clothing, upholstery, and hard surfaces like formica, linoleum, ceramics, and porcelain. The other product is our Odor Zap, a heavy-duty odor neutralizer formulated to permanently eliminate odors like smoke, mildew, paint fumes, or waste matter. This product is biodegradable, non-toxic, non-corrosive, hypoallergenic and non-staining. It's 100% safe for people, pets, and the environment. I think I would use both - the first for the stain and the second to remove the odor. If you would like me to send you a catalog so you could check this out, just e-mail me, and I'll get one in the mail to you.

One day I was reading one of my online newsletters and someone had written in that an insurance adjuster had told her to clean her household items with Listerine after a fire, and the smell would be gone. He said it would remove almost any odor. I tried it on my husband's clothes and it works great. Now I never wash them without it. I was thinking if your spill is a small one, saturating a paper towel or something like it with Listerine and leaving it in the car for a while might help. It's worth a try. Hope this helps, Sharon Posted on 01/24/2005 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Diesel Fuel Stain and Odor By patsAZ (58) Profile Contact My first thought would be to put hubby in the car and send it over a cliff. love patsAZ Posted on 01/24/2005 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Diesel Fuel Stain and Odor By Brooxie (Guest Post) Another reason to replace the seat.....the current one is now a big time fire hazard !!!!

The fumes you are ingesting from the diesel into your lungs are petroleum distillates and are doing irrepairable damage. Especially if there are children that ride in the car. You can always get another from a "pick-and-save" type of auto parts place/wrecker. It doesn't have to match, you can always put a seat cover over it. Good Luck!
