How to Quickly Remove Formaldehyde from a Car?

Thoroughly clean the car's interior. Use an air compressor to evenly spray photocatalyst inside the car. Wait for the solvent to dry, then perform a second spray to ensure all interior parts and corners are covered.

The pungent smell in my new car gave me a headache, and I realized it was due to excessive formaldehyde. For health reasons, I tried a few simple methods: before driving every day, I open all the windows to ventilate for at least 15 minutes, especially on hot days when I park it in the sun—high temperatures can accelerate formaldehyde release. I placed some activated charcoal bags under the seats and in the corners of the trunk, taking them out every few days to air and restore their adsorption capacity. I also used a car air purifier with a HEPA filter, which efficiently filters out harmful substances. After consistently applying these small actions for a week, the smell noticeably faded. Remember not to use perfumes to mask the odor—it can actually worsen the problem. Safe driving starts with clean air, so it's best to leave a new car empty for a few days before using it.
