Cleaning Oil from trunk

Ok so I was taking some old oil to AZ to dump it and my sub broke open the bottle. It ruined the carpet and the piece under it

Any tips on how to clean all the oil off of the metal inside the trunk?

well wipe it up with news papers to get the majority of the oil out.....next use a paper to wipe better ,then use A KITCHEN DETERGENT, it works well with all oils . and you can try some simplegreen too.

it's gonna take a whole month for the smell to be gone.

clean it as much as you can and sun dry it, just park it under the sun with the trunk open.
