Stripped the interior outta the Accord, scrubbed down all plastic pieces, checked floor pan for rust. Power washed the carpet, hung it to dry. Found ANOTHER wasp nest and smashed it with a hammer. Put the interior back in.

It's not the best job, but it's sure as hell a lot cheaper than renting a carpet cleaner. The carpet gets HEAVY as hell though and tough to carry when it's wet.

I sprayed it at the car wash, and let it sit for like 15 minutes. Then when it was drained enough I lugged it back into the Fit (since my uncle never showed up with his truck) and hung it over the fence at my grandmother. Let it sit in the sun for a few hours and bam.

Now my car just smells like an old Honda instead of smoke and resin. Only bad thing was that the sound deading gets all soupy and gross. If I had the money I would a just tore it off and dynamatted the car out.
