Ugh, smoke smell!

Hey guys,

Looking for some advice on products and techniques on getting rid of smoke smell in my used cars? Any info would be a great help to me and my detailers.

Best,

The only thing that has ever truly worked for me is absolutely cleaning everything. Taking out seats, behind the dash, A/C system, etc. Even the Ionizers I've used worked but they were temporary not complete results.
