I have never heard this before, nor is it mentioned in any reviews I've seen. Maybe someone pissed in your bottle.

Maybe you got a bad batch. I've gone through a few bottles and it smells nothing like puke.

Interesting. I had never heard of/seen the revive, so just looked into it since i have several AF products. How come you went with that? Seems like it leaves a pretty wet look and mostly seen it used on exterior trim pieces, though some don't like the smell, so you may want to take a whiff before you put it on the interior.

If you like the AF products though, their crystal glass cleaner is exceptional, best stuff I've ever used hands down, and the Spritz interior detailer works great as an interior detail spray that leaves no sheen/shine at all and smells great. They also make a total interior cleaner which is a little stronger than the spritz, so cleans better and also works great on the carpets and floormats as I learned last week. Got a lil spot of mud off my floormat, and sprayed a bit over the whole floor mat, quick wipe with a microfiber towel and I swear, the entire floormat looks brand new. Was looking a little dingy beforehand.

it does have a smell which smells like something from the factory.....definitely! doesn't smell like ordinary cleaners. I'm not sure if it's exactly 'new car smell', but it doesn't smell like a cleaner.

So you made me go to the garage to see what I had bought... And it is actually AF Dressle, sorry for the mistake, Greg. I've used it only on the engine alongside with some Sonax trim restorer, which is great as well, and it didn't give it that shiny look to it. I was debating between Spritz and Dressle, but since Dressle is quite new in the AF lineup and not many people have tried as far as I know, I thought I'd give it a go.

I'm going to try it tomorrow and will post some pictures. I'm doing a full detail with paint correction on the car, by the way.

I have had AF Citrus Power, Dressle and Lather shampoo (2014 formula) bought a month ago. Citrus Power was a let down, imho. It gets rave reviews from all over the world how great it is, blah blah, but I just coudn't get good results from it. Maybe a pump sprayer would help me. Don't know.
Lather is good, before that I had Chemical Guys Glossworkz which, being my first proper shampoo, I totally loved. It really gave the car some more gloss immediately. Lather seems to be as good as CG G., smells (CG didn't) after some fruit and feels slick.

For carpets and cloth, I have got Meguiar's Interior Cleaner or whatever it is called. Again, haven't used it yet. Polishing the paint takes so much time it is unbelievable.

Well, thanks. Might get it if the previously mentioned AF product disappoints me. I love the new car smell!
