DetailingGeneral discussion forum for detailing your vehicle.
This is a discussion thread titled "Cleaning vomit", within the Detailing forum, part of the Technical & Vehicle Assistance Forums category.
So I went out this weekend with this girl I know and ended up at the strip club getting hammered. That's the good part. On the ride home in my Tundra the girl decides she's going to puke all over my truck. She gave no warning at all. She just puked right in my cup holders. After yelling at her I tell her to tell me if she has to puke again. Well a few minutes later she pukes all over my seat. Now after ripping my seat out and trying to clean my truck as best as I can I still have to ride with the windows down. Will this smell ever go away????

Ug... Thats a smell that doesn't really go away, and typically comes back in full force when you park in the sun on a hot day. At least it doesn't get very hot and sunny in... oh, nevermind
Yeah I'm in Phoenix in the 100 degree sun. I don't know what to do. I already ripped the front seat out and cleaned everything I could find. I have three scented trees in my truck and all it does is smell like strawberry puke in my truck. I left all my windows down the rest of the weekend with a fan blowing through the front. Anyone have some suggestions???

Would you expect less from a girl that goes with you on a date to a strip club? And you were both hammered and driving? Sound like an all around classy evening.

Strawberry puke? ew. Baja Rosa by any chance?
Anyways, baking soda is always an odor eliminator's best friend. Shake it on everywhere you think might stink and leave it for a while. It'll absorb any moisture and odor. Vacuum it up a day or so later (after it dries fully). After you do that, use a product like Meguairs "Car Odor Eliminator" or a similar industrial grade product made for removing car odors. I've heard that PRO makes an excellent product for this: Link Here And Here
Thanks for the suggestions. I'll try the baking soda idea.
By the way it wasn't a date. It was just a friend I've known since I was younger. She's the one that got too hammered. I knew someone would bring up the fact that we were drinking and driving.

Like Tundrav8yamaha mentioned... steam vac take take care... I think? The scent stuffs won't remove it.
Better yet.. bring to the detailing center for them to do interior shampooing....
PS: Next time... bring BIG BAGs
febreze and the Steam Vac work's great I can't tell you how many times i've used that for My Black Lab who makes a mess at times (home and truck). The machine has payed for itself I got it a wile back 1996 and still running well

should have gone easy on those corners. I assume that you have the TRD package as well. (the rougher ride).
But anyways, I would recommend the carpet shampoo. It can have limited penetration into the foam to help dilute the puke.
Baking soda,
Club soda,
charchol (sp??) (but it stains)
fabreeze.
If you have the cloth skin off, I assume that the foam coushing can somehow be removed and cleaned.
If it bothers you greatly. You could always unbolt the seat and give it a through hose down.
I say the girl owes you big. Perhaps you can play the simpathy card.

If you were driving while intoxicated you are lucky thats the only thing that happened to you! Serves you right!
