Jakarta - Odor problems can arise due to interiors that absorb flood water. Of course this will greatly interfere with your driving comfort.

For those who are very sensitive to this problem, it is better to do further treatment if after normal washing and drying the smell does not disappear. One car salon in Jakarta, offering this service at a cost of Rp 200,000.

"It costs Rp 200,000 for ozone services, to neutralize unpleasant odors such as musty smell or even rotten due to flooding," Autoglaze Indonesia's Marketing Manager Stephen Setyadi told AFP on Wednesday (1/1/2020).

"So from the engine it emits O3 which serves to neutralize the air in the interior including the unpleasant odors," he added.

However, before getting these services, it is better to wash and dry the interior of the car first. Because, Autoglaze does not accommodate the dismantling and installation of seats.

"With a note that the interior of the car soaked must be cleaned and dried first. If it's from Autoglaze, we don't have service for loading and unloading the seats," he said.

Stephen reminded car users not to neglect handling of flood-affected interiors. Because in addition to leaving a smell, the interior material becomes durable and usually loses its best color.

"Inside the interior there are other items such as trim boards. If not cleaned can damage the color and become discolored between submerged and not," he said.
