Thanks for the warnings guys, I shall tread lightly as I go.

For the interior I think I would use a wipe over with alcohol followed by a wipe over with a normal car interior cleaner and, if leather, something specifically for leather. The exterior a simple wipe over with alcohol would be fine. Then leave the car open to air till any remaining odour has evaporated.

Scotch or gin would probably be fine but may cause problems if you get pulled up for a police check, vodka has less odour so you would probably get away with it but pure cleaning alcohol is probably best. smile
