How can I get rid of the smell

I have plywood wrapped in carpet in my rear section and my car smells like a tree sometimes.. just wondering if I can coat it with something, preferrably odorless.

Re: How can I get rid of the smell

Are you talking about deck sealant stuff? Don't they have some kind of laquer smell though?

Re: How can I get rid of the smell

you could possibly think of fibergalssing it . hell it may be a little costly but it'd sure look better than plywood with carpet on it.

i used to paint and ive used it, and as long as the room had plenty of ventalation, once it dryed completely, it never smelled, could it be ur paint had gone bad?? I know most people think paint cant go bad, but if the paint get really cold, then hot quickly, it will go bad.

Re: How can I get rid of the smell

Maybe I'll just paint over it, that smell should probably go away after a little while.
