De-stinking a 'smokers' car - possible? If so, how?

[larrylamb11]

I've recently looked for and found a new toy... On viewing it was apparent it's been heavily smoked in.... I let my excited chimp overrule my sensible head and bought it, convincing myself that the smoke smell wasn't too bad and I wouldn't notice it that much with the roof down anyway.... I was wrong! It's awful!

I now want to have a stab at improving it so I don't smell like an overflowing ashtray.

So what can I do? Is there a detailing shampoo or something I can use to wash the carpets and seats that might work? I'm quite prepared to take the seats and as much of the other interior trim out as I can and steam clean it all, but if there's a better solution that would save me having to do that I'd appreciate any suggestions.

I also have a slightly manky cloth roof to clean and re-waterproof, with some green 'organic' growth to remove first - again, what is the best way of cleaning this? (it looks like someone has tried jet washing with partial success as it's stripy too!) and then the right stuff to re-proof?

Thanks for the replies - ordered some ValetPro carpet cleaner and enzyme stuff and I'll see where that gets me... I've got a wet/dry carpet vac so can hit it with that too. I'm clearly going to need to spend some time stripping as much of the interior out as I can and attacking it one bit at a time.... luckily it's only a small two seater, so not too much to strip and clean.
I also have some G101 cleaner which I will do the interior plastics with and use one of the highlighted ^ odour eater products if it's still minging after a good clean.
Car is late 90's and the smell does not suit it in any way!
