There's an easy hack for those who get headaches from harsh smells, want to use less chemicals, or just want to save a little money. Instead of using smelly and expensive interior store-bought detail sprays, try this little hack. Rub a little bit of olive oil on an old cloth (or sock) onto your car's interior. It will give you that car-show shine without those harsh chemicals.
