Default OT: Moldy interior cleanup

First of all, who stores their car knowing that the carpets are soaked? Those of you that store your car over the winter, do you use a de-humidifier?

I park both the Porsches for winter hibernation with about 15 pounds of dessicator in them to protect the leather, carbon fiber, and wood. Cars smell fresh & new. The heated garage also helps.

There is no way the car will ever smell normal inside. That is a total loss! Yuck

no all is not lost. Under several AKA you can find "ozone generator" via Nic Tessla 1899, that will create O3 which will kill fungus, bacteria, etc. on contact. Its for real and used in many commercial applications under market corrected names. Salvage cars/smoker cars/ wet interior used cars/ are all sanitized with
O3 AKA ozone. The www is full of sellers of equip.

I have an ozone generator. Used it in my boat and basement. Didn't work. Moldy smell still there. And yes it is of the proper output for concentrated mold "kill".
