Why the smell always comes back
Almost every bad car smell has a physical source sitting in the upholstery. Milk, vomit and pet accidents soak straight through the seat fabric into the foam underneath, and the foam holds it. Bacteria feed on what is in there, and that is what you can smell weeks later.
Spraying an air freshener over it adds a second smell on top of the first. Shampooing the surface cleans what you can see and leaves the foam untouched. Both are why the problem keeps coming back on a hot day with the windows up.
The fix is deep extraction of dirt and debris. We inject a cleaning solution under pressure, agitate it through the fibres and into the foam, then pull the whole lot back out with a vacuum strong enough to lift the moisture with it. That removes the source rather than diluting it.
For smells with no single spill behind them, like cigarette smoke or mould from a leaking seal, we treat the whole cabin with ozone. Ozone oxidises odour molecules throughout the space, including inside the vents and headliner where nothing else reaches.
The messes we get called out for
If it is not on this list, ask anyway. It is very unlikely we have not seen it.
Vomit
Car sickness, a rough night, a sick kid. It soaks into the foam fast and the acid can mark the fabric, so the sooner we get to it the better the result.
Spilled milk
The worst of the lot, and the one people leave longest. Milk in warm foam turns rancid and the smell is genuinely hard to live with. Fully recoverable with extraction.
Coffee, soft drink and food
The everyday ones. Coffee and cola stain quickly on light fabric, and food ground into carpet needs agitation before it will lift.
Pet accidents
Urine soaks deep and the ammonia smell intensifies in heat. Needs full extraction and usually an enzyme treatment on top.
Smoke
Cigarette smoke coats every surface including the headliner and the inside of the vents. Surface cleaning plus ozone is the only thing that genuinely shifts it.
Mould and damp
Usually a leaking seal or a window left open in a storm. We treat the mould, but tell us so you can get the leak fixed, or it will simply come back.

Jayden from High Shine Club did an outstanding job. My car was returned in pristine, showroom condition inside and out after the Showroom Detailing package. The attention to detail was next level, from the exterior finish to the interior and even the engine bay, it genuinely looks brand new. The service was completed in around four hours, and the mobile setup made it incredibly convenient for them to come to me. From the very beginning, Jayden and the team were highly communicative, clear during the booking process, professional with invoicing, and consistent throughout the entire job. I couldn’t be happier with the result and would absolutely recommend High Shine Club and Jayden to anyone looking for top-quality detailing.
Zaak and his team were absolutely amazing. Our regular mobile detailer became so unreliable even when given our vehicle schedule 2 weeks in advance that we were forced to look elsewhere. The team at High Shine Club worked perfectly with our schedule of when our cars were at the office and barely went over the allocated time for a full detail. I've waited 12 months to leave this review as often businesses only impress initially but our quarterly details on the entire fleet have all gone perfectly also. I couldn't recommend this company more for any corporate client and have recently had my personal vehicle ceramic coated and was so impressed that I've included photos. Great young man running an impressive business!
The team at High Shine Club have done an absolutely brilliant job detailing my car. From initial contact, to sending quotes for their various packages, to phone conversations, to getting the job done, and finalizing payment on completion, to a follow up phone call from Zaak after the job was done — all a very organized, streamlined, easy and personal process. The staff take real pride in their craft, are well mannered and work very hard to ensure they do a perfect job. My car looks new again inside and out. Black as black again inside and a shine to beat all shines on the outside. I highly recommend the team at High Shine. An absolute pleasure to do business with them.
I have what some would consider a substantial car collection, plus a fleet of work vehicles, I’ve used almost every mobile car detailing company on the market and none, I mean none are as detailed as Zak and his business, I’ve always reluctantly handed over the money disappointed that service they provided was not as expected nor value for money. It’s not easy running your own business and being hands on too, Zak is a master of entrepreneurship, likeable, genuine, sincere and professional across all aspects especially communication… go on book him and I guarantee you he won’t disappoint. Well done Zak, welcome back to do my cars anytime your available 😎
One word "Sublime" I had an accident, I had left a full glass bottle of rum in the front seat of my kia stinger on a very hot day .... and you can guess what happened, yes it cracked in half & all the rum soaked into the seat & onto the carpet underneath. I mopped it up best I could & carpet cleaned it twice but still the smell of rum was still there, yuk. Until Nathan from High Shine detailed my interior. Nathan did a fantastic job, no more rum smell at all, he worked his magic & all my leather interior hasn't looked this good since purchasing my car 7 years ago. Lee-Ann Colhoun Aegis Safety
My car was recently broken into and oil sprayed throughout, along with forensics dust from the qps and months of neglecting to clean my children occupied car. I booked in for an urgent detail, unfortunately due to time constraints it wasn't able to be completed the first go around (our office closes at 430), Zaak called to check in on how the clean went and I mentioned a couple of things that still needed cleaning and he was quick to send grace back out to complete the job as soon as they had the chance. These guys clearly pride themselves on customer satisfaction. I would use them again.
I called on Monday and the team arrived the next day. I purchased a commercial truck that previous owner had dogs that would travel with him. Dog hair was throughout the truck cabin and Matt didn’t hesitate to get stuck in. After two hours the job was done and the truck had never looked so good without a dog hair in sight. As a fleet owner of commercial trucks, this level of service was far beyond what I expect from most of the photos they provided was on cars. Couldn’t be more happier with the result and will continue to have the team service more of my fleet.
I recently had my car detailed and I couldn’t be happier with the results. The service was excellent from start to finish. Zaak was very professional, friendly and clearly takes pride in his work. He carried out the detail on my car with a great level of care and attention to detail, making it look as good as new. Everything was done to a high standard, and you can really see the effort that went into every part of the job. I highly recommend Zaak to anyone looking for top-quality car detailing and outstanding customer service. I’ll definitely be coming back!
"Interior Restoration" & "Vent Flush" I was really worried about my Grandkids being in the car & thought I definitely needed a professional to do the interior of my daughter's car. It was pretty bad, & had some mould in a few places. I'm so glad I picked the High Shine Club. Talking to Zaak on the phone was a pleasure, he was so friendly, attentive & helpful. Very happy with the outcome of the car. I feel so much better knowing the Grandies & my daughter will be safe & not breathing in mould. Would definitely recommend using the High Shine Club & Zaak🙂
Thank you sooo much! Amazing service and such a fantastic result. My kids and dog had absolutely destroyed my car with spills, food, craft mess and more, and I was honestly embarrassed by the condition of it. The lovely man who cleaned it was so kind, professional, and completely non-judgmental — and honestly, even if he was secretly judging me, I wouldn’t blame him because my car definitely deserved some judgement 😂 But he worked absolute magic. It now looks so clean and smells so much better. I’m beyond grateful and would highly recommend!
Massive thank you to the High Shine Club. My car was desperate for an interior clean (due to my cat doing the one thing we don’t want our pets to do in our car), Zaak was super professional and friendly on the phone and booked me in as soon as possible. The team came to my house and left my car looking and smelling brand new, with a full detail, including a wax. Despite Zaak and his partner having to work in the rain they remained unbelievably friendly and did an absolutely amazing job. Would highly recommend them to anyone.
High Shine did an AMAZING job detailing both the inside and outside of our Car. It was like when it rolled off the lot from the dealers, BRAND NEW!!!! Zaak (One of the companies founders) was incredibly friendly, punctual, and communicates with you every step of the way. High Shine seem to be quite accommodating to their clients needs. Great price to top it all off!! Would gladly recommend to anyone, and I will be contacting High Shine again, when I need them. Thanks for a wonderful job guys.
My car had sun damage it was driving me crazy lol .So I did some searching and found High Shine The work done on my car is perfection. I’m happy to finally see my car shining ,the cut and polish is I’m more than happy with .I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw the finished job as I had a bad experience with someone else previously The work done by an intelligent hard working, honest good guy that knew what he was doing .I have no problem with recommending High Shine.Respectfully Thank you
Zaak was excellent and explained the deep clean sevice I wanted done on a 2025 Toyota Hiace Van. He was very professional., and excellent customer service. The process of booking a service and the payment process was professional and seamless. Nathan who conducted the detailing service was friendly, professional and very articulate. At the completion of the service, my van looked like it had just come off the showroom floor. I highly recommend High Shine Club and Zaak and the team.
I am extremely happy with the detail done on my car today. Zaak from the start was friendly, professional and upfront with expectations. The dog hair that was the main concern must of been a true challenge. Zaak explained that it may not all be gone but wow, what an amazing job he did. I'm very thankful and impressed with this young man's efforts and will definitely be back again. I will also be recommending him to family and friends Thank you Zaak.
Zaak detailed our car and delivered an exceptional experience from start to finish. His communication was clear, prompt, and professional, and he arrived exactly on time. He was incredibly polite, engaging, and clearly proud of his craft. The result was genuine showroom quality. It’s inspiring to see a young small‑business owner operate with such professionalism and care. I’m genuinely glad to support him and will absolutely be booking again.
I have an immaculate BMWX3 which has been maintained by me until my health deteriorated. I made an appointment with High Shine to take over my car cleaning. Superbly qualified cleaner arrived with all the machines and materials and left me with an as new vehicle. I will get them every two months for maintenance clean after the in depth clean today. I recommend others who want their immaculate cars kept looking that way to try High Shine
I had Matts car detailed for his birthday present from Mum. Wow, what an amazing job. It looked like a brand new car. Zaak did an outstanding job. We will do a detail every year. It was worth every cent. I would highly recommend this company. From the first phone call to emails and follow ups. Extremely professional. Make sure you give this company a try you will be so grateful like my son and myself. Thanks Zaak Annette
We made a call out to Zaak Friday Arvo he arrived Monday morning and spent 4+ hours in the heat bringing our work company car back to life. His attention to detail is amazing, it was a big job but one that is never too big for someone that knows what he’s doing! We 100% recommend this company to anyone looking to bring life back into their vehicle he is also mobile and comes to you!! 10 stars from us at Blue Care
Zac and Lawrence worked on our two cars today, the heat was incredible but that didn't phase them. They did an incredible job, last week another worker came to detail our vehicle but did a terrible job but Zac said he would redo the job at no extra cost and I am glad I used High Shine. Our vehicles need a bit of pampering from time to time as well.... So when you want a great job... Call Zac at High Shine Club
My car looks amazing. It hasn’t looked this good since the day I drove it out of the showroom. It had some water stains on the paint and unfortunately a few scratches from an incident last week. Zaak worked tirelessly in the heat all day to make my car look perfect. I will be highly recommending him to everybody that I meet! strong work ethic & great communication equalled an outstanding result. Thanks again
Could not be happier with the result. My Pajero is over 15 years old, and the paint had accumulated its fair share of swirl marks, I honestly did not expect it to come up this well. The team did a fantastic job; the paint now has a deep gloss and mirror-like finish that makes the vehicle look years younger. Even the wheels, tyres, and engine bay were finished to a very high standard. Highly recommended.
Very positive first impressions after today’s car clean & detail. Very professional from start to finish, from the booking process to the cleaned car , was kept updated on their arrival time. Once they arrived & we’re set up, I just left Matt to do his thing without having to watch over & prompt him in any way Car came up a million bucks from what it was . Very happy with work & recommend using them
“Absolutely fantastic service! These young guys are hardworking, professional, and clearly passionate about what they do. My car looks spotless inside and out—like it just came out of the showroom! They paid great attention to detail and didn’t miss a single spot. Friendly, efficient, and well worth the price. I’ll definitely be coming back and recommending them to everyone I know. Great job, guys!”

Stain and odour FAQ
Can you get vomit smell out completely?
In the large majority of cases, yes. Deep extraction pulls it out of the foam rather than cleaning around it, which is what makes the difference. If it has been sitting for months in a hot car we will be straight with you about the odds before we start.
How soon should I book after a spill?
As soon as you can. Milk, vomit and urine all get worse with time and heat, because bacteria multiply in the foam. A same-week booking is the difference between an easy job and a hard one, and we do offer same-day where we can.
Will the stain come out or just the smell?
Usually both. Fresh spills come out completely. Older stains on light fabric sometimes leave a faint shadow even once the smell is entirely gone. We will tell you honestly what we expect before we start.
What is ozone treatment?
A machine that fills the cabin with ozone gas, which oxidises odour molecules everywhere in the space, including in the vents and headliner. It is what we use for smoke and mould, where the smell is not coming from one spot you can point at.
Can you fix a mouldy car?
Yes, and it is more common than people think after a Brisbane storm season. We treat the mould and remove the smell. Get the water leak fixed as well, though, or it will grow back.
Do you service all Brisbane suburbs?
Yes. We cover all Brisbane suburbs, north side, south side, east, west and surrounds. Travel is built into your quote. We come to you wherever the car is parked.
