Before we start talking about how to get the smell of weed out of your car, one big disclaimer. You should NEVER drive your car stoned. Even a little bit intoxicated with weed. No matter what the laws of your state dictate, buzzed driving is really dangerous and can get you into a wreck.

With that said, let’s talk about the #1 way to avoid the smell of marijuana stinking up your car–don’t smoke it or store it in your car.

Well, that was unavoidably obvious. But it is worth saying. Some people don’t realize that the odors of marijuana won’t just get out of your car with a cruise down the highway with your windows down. Much like cigarette smoke, the odor molecules bond with the fabric in your seats, carpets, etc. You may like the faint whiff of it, but anyone who you might be driving around may not. So if it’s not there, keep it that way!

If it is there, whether because you smoked in your car when there wasn’t anywhere else to do it, or because someone borrowed your car and smoked weed in it. This is the article for you! Read on.

Masking the Smell of Marijuana

If you’ve not smoked but have just stored some weed in your car, you might be able to get away with masking the smell. You could try a car air freshener, some perfume, or some Asian takeout, but the smell needs to be pungent in order to mask the smell of pot.

Do Spray Products Do The Trick?

There are some spray products on the market that may help to get the smell off your seats and other parts of the interior. You could try Febreeze or something similar, but we recommend making a spray formula with some water and a 4g PuroClenz treatment if you want to go the spray bottle route. This creates a truly effective spray that will eliminate those odors for good.

Have you tried that and it didn’t work completely? I’m not surprised. It wouldn’t entirely get rid of the marijuana smell because you’ve only dealt with part of the problem. For the most effective way to completely rid your car of the odor, you’ll need to use something that gets into the car vent system.

How to Eliminate the Smell Of Marijuana From Your Car

Marijuana smoke, with its pungent, skunky smell, permeates the fabrics of the vehicle you smoke it in and the air conditioning system too! Without further ado, here is the absolute best way to rid your vehicle of marijuana odors:

• Use a PuroClenz standard 20-gram tablet
• Fill the PuroClenz cup to the 20-gram level that is clearly marked
• Drop in the tablet and let PuroClenz gas off for approximately 1 hour
• Then start the vehicle and run the recirculating system for about 20 minutes
• If possible, leave the remaining active PuroClenz and cup in your vehicle overnight

In the morning open the vehicle windows and air out for 10 to 15 minutes. Boom! That weed odor is gone. Car dealers and rental car companies all over the country rely on PuroClenz to handle their vehicle odor issues.
