    Happens all of the time. I believe there is a warning on the label about it.

    Someone on here had sunscreen or something on their arm and rested against the drivers door panel, the black came off and it turned a weird green color.

    Run an ozone generator in the interior for about 30mins with the fan blowing on high and windows up.

    Then let the truck air out afterwards, as you don't want to be breathing ozone.

    Be careful not to let the ozone generator run too long, it can and will destroy anything rubber.

    Also, anything wet when running an ozone generator can be bleached. So be wary of wet upholstery or what not.

    Bought a bottle Chemical Guys mango lemon stink spray. I hate roasting good ones into my new seats but stuff happens. I can't stop and fart all the time. Forgot the bottle today.

    Never forget the Walking Dead episode with Abraham airing the car out on a hot southern day.....walker locked in there a few years

    In my old Mazda my girlfriend bought me a vent clip air freshener, it ended up leaking and completely melted the plastic vent it was attached to.
