Default GUNK engine degreaser...horrible smell

yeah, so I used this yesterday to detail my engine bay.
My cabin REEKS like this stuff. Is there a good way to "flush out" the vents or what? I'm thinking some must have gotten into the vent area by where the wiper arms connect to the car..

I've been breathing this in for over 4 hours and I have a headache....

Make sure you really washed out your engine bay well. It takes awhile to get it all off. Then just give it a few days and the smell should go away. I've used it before and it takes a little while for the smell to die down.

I love that stuff. Foaming degreaser works wonders
