    Cat spray is very difficult to remove. You must find the source (area of interior)

    As Flash said you must find the contaminated area. If it’s in the carpet or cloth upholstery you will need to use an enzyme and an extractor. If carpet you may have to remove to get to the back side. Cloth upholstery will need a good soaking then extracted. Good luck

    CQuartz makes an amazing product named So Pure that removed Cat Spray from a buddy's car in about 30 minutes. PM me for details on where to purchase.

    Find the spot, clean/extract and try treating with Nature's Miracle or another enzyme based cleaner.

    The way to find cat urine is use a black light in the dark and it will glow green. Or just get down close and use your nose!

    Enzymes work !
