put some meat in the trunk yesterday at around 4:45... Two hours later got home and I had the a/c on full blast while it was like 90 degrees. Now when i pulled out the meat (yesterday two and a half hours later or so) there was a big stain and now the car reeks! My dad is pissed off at me, maybe the guy put in the meat wrong and it dripped and dripped. Good thing is it's on the tire wall cover thing. Anyone know what i can do? My dad is pissed at me, it's not my fault... Lol whenever he goes to Chicago to pickup the meat he spends another 2-3 hours out anyways.

Thanks, he said he googled it and he did call me before I made this thread saying that he googled it and it said nothing would make it come out. Thanks guys

Ok, more seriously:

Baking soda? Lemon juice? Wintergreen scented rubbing alcohol? Think of every chemical cleaning agent and hit it with everything you can find.

Call your local Acura dealer and ask if they sell replacements liners.

I'd also suggest a trunk tray so something like this doesn't happen again.

Next time--Cooler with frozen water bottles. My preferred method when going to costco 1 hour away

I'd just clean the fuck outta it.
ya know to disinfect it.

then would use something to bring out the smell. like charcoal maybe

I had milk spill in the back of my 4Runner in July and I was never able to get the smell out 100% but I poured that scented oil from a glade plug in and it masked the smell enough until it was pretty well neutralized. Not sure what would get the stain out but this is a good time to invest in a handy Trunk liner

Everything everyone else said. And then put a sheet of fabric softener back there.

You need a Bio-Enzymatic cleaning product to break down the enzymes. Look for a cleaner that does blood stains.

What kind of meat was it...?

I have a similar problem to this currently as well, except this was in the back seat in my perforated leather. Every night I park my car in the garage, open all the windows, pour baking soda all over the seat, the vacuum out the next day. It's getting better every day.

Chicken and Goat I think. Mostly chicken.

Took the trunk liner out (just the one that comes out and covers the spare tire) washed it quite a few times with the hose bottom and top. put some degreaser to both sides, let it do it's work and then sprayed it off a couple more times. It's in the garage drying. The trunk still smells and I'm thinking maybe I can use some carpet cleaner for that and also get some febreeze odor eliminator.

no lol I think because it was so hot and that it was in the trunk for two hours in 95degrees (trunk temp LOL) the thing leaked like milk.

The meat leaked milk? Why was there milk in it?

cows are made of meat and give milk.....no?

opboarding

Ohh that make sense! I guess it was a glob of meat where they just grind up the entire cow and package it immediately.

Buy one, use it, return it.

WheelMcCoy

If you kept the meat in there for maybe 12 hours, you'd have something like a luau -- pit cooked meat.

I went to a real Luau last week, we weren't able to eat the pig they cooked in the pit because of some lame FDA rules. The FDA are such fun haters.

Acura_Dude

Dude, when it comes to food, you know I have to ask.

What a waste... I bet it was good pork too.

LOL left the trunk lining in the garage for about a week and sprayed the whole car with glade odor eliminating spray... Smells good now, I think its gone.

turkishexpress

Replace the trunk liner if it's not too expensive. Pull your cabin air filter out (2 min job), spray some air freshener on it, and put it back. It'll supply the interior with much needed good smells for a few days. Make sure you use a good air freshener though. Not the cheap stuff
