I know that bad smells (e.g., skunk, swamp mud) are usually bases that need an acid (e.g., vinegar, Tomato Juice) to neutralize them. I see anti-freeze (ethylene glycol) has alkaline-type groups on the ends, so would probably be neutralized by similar (acid) reactions. (Soaps on the other hand are bases, so wouldn't affect it.)

So try vinegar (or tomato juice).
