Small victories and rat piss #1

I read on here once where someone tried to do at least one thing on their car every day. Be it 10 mins or 10 hours I liked the thought and adopted it as my own.

Today was small victory day. I dropped off the radiator to be renewed and I gave tu8one it's marquee identity back.

While working on the trunk/boot I could smell rat urine pretty strong. The nests are long gone but the smell remains. What have you used to get rid of the stench?

Also, as you can see I still need to source the "MIDGET" badge and a few teeth on each end of my grill. Anyone have these hanging around they can sell me?

Thanks, David

Go to a pet store. They should have some spray that neutralizes pet urine when pets have accidents in the house. It should probably work on rat piss as well.

Ha, ha, Fabuloso, Spanish for fabulous, I gotta get some. I have been using white vinegar for stuff like mold, vinegar smell trumps mold and it kills it.

X2 on Wayne's suggestion...pet store should have the 'solution'! Read the label and make sure it's safe for paint and metal.

I use "Blue Stuff" from my Motorhome, as it has enzymes that chemically destroy the reside, then you can clean/rinse with plain water. Thetford is the best name with this stuff. Use the Blue Stuff. smiling smiley
