Mark V Bio Zyme. It will kill bacteria and not just cover up the odor.

Nick, Did you try the deodorizer that Ken sent you?

Are you looking for a deodouriser or just a strong masking agent? CG Stripper scent, as I understand, is just an air freshener and will just cover up the base smells.

You can actually remover the problem odours, either with a biological (or an enzyme if your product is behind the times) or a chemical treatment. Much of the time, this costly addition is something which odourisers will omit in their formulation but not be so obvious in their marketing!

PiPUK, I have not been able to find an MSDS for the product; however, the manufacturer states that it will actually eliminate odors (in addition to providing the instant smell of "success").

From CG:

How it Works
Natural enzymatic air fresheners work by eliminating odors and reducing new odors. This is a powered new revolutionary formulation that works enzymatically.

I have not used it myself, but I've seen nothing but good stuff from Duragloss 371.

My apologies, I must be mistaken.

What is definitely true is that cg need to work on their tech marketing. Enzymes are so last century!!

Another product that I've used with very good success is CarPro's So2Pure photocatalyst interior deodorizer. I'm curious of your thoughts on this product. It doesn't appear to use any sort of enzyme. Instead, the active ingredient is meant to remain on the interior surfaces and continuously "oxidize" odor causing molecules when activated by UV (sunlight).

I will admit that I have little experience with a UV catalysed de-odouriser but there are chemical de-odourisers which will destroy bad smells through chemical reaction. Enzyme products take a long time to work, the enzyme does its work and moves on to the next smelly molecule. Chemical products do not have this limitation. As noted, enzyme products are now old tech. The modern approach is to use 'biologicals' which still have some enzyme but don't need activating or similar and thus are much faster acting. Whether CG use this (and just don't realise the difference) or not, is entirely guesswork!
