Reply to comment by Alucard624 in LPT: If your home/car has an odor you can use white vinegar as a extremely effective cleaning solution. by Alucard624

Can you provide a source for the molecule-bonding claim, please?

Not OP, and I'm giving an educated guess, so bear with me.

A lot of foul odors of organic origin tend to be alkaline: ammonia, urea, sulfates, etc., and acetic acid tends to neutralize them into something we can't smell, or temporarily overpower the smell. In the case of weed, it's either an aromatic hydrocarbon or a terpene that is in charge of the smell. I presume that in the presence of acids, those molecules breakdown into something we cannot smell.
