"Hi! My name is Tim Duke with Premier Detailing located here in Orem, Utah, and I'm going to show you how to remove vomit smell. First, you're going to want to vacuuming it up. This is the area that had the vomit in it. Then we use the Citrus-based Degreaser cleaner and then you're going to want to just kind of soap that in there. What we have here is a nylon, just stiff bristle kind of of brush, you can get it on Auto Zone or your car detailing place. Just kinda, once you put the degreaser on it, you just kind of lighten things up and then it's all about agitation, you just want to work it in real nice, you just kind of free some of the free dirt and buff over it with a nice, white towels, you can see the process you're going through with all that dirt and then you're going to want to spray over it with our enzyme cleaner. And enzymes, what it does is it'll break down the actual bacteria in the vomit and break it down whereas it can be vacuumed up and dry. So, once you sprayed that on, you're going to want to go over it, more agitation, agitation, heat and extraction are the three methods used best for removing stains and smells. And again, just buff over it with you towel, use a clean size, you can see the difference we're makin' and there's some of that vomit there. Just kind of agitate it and get it all up and then once it dries you're going to want to leave it when it's time you can dry and once it's all completely dry, you're going to want to go back over and just vacuum it a few more times to get the rest of the dried off bacteria and everything that the enzymes have broken down. You want to get all those removed so that's how you remove vomit smell."
