Is the smoke damage really that serious? Wow, didn't know that. Well, a few years back I did a lot of rebuilding of my classic American Muscle car's engine in my kitchen. That wasn't so bad though I found out the carb cleaner sets smoke detectors off.

A married guy's kitchen smells like food, mine smelled like a car engine.
