Hiya everyone,

Just been away for last holiday and the folding camper now needs tlc, got it 2nd hand at beginning of season. It has some mould on the cushions, some on the curtains and some on one of the inner tents. I would have sorted it over the summer but have been busy moving house!! Any help on how I can treat it would be appreciated. Already looked in the archive and didn't find much help. I plan to treat the mould and then keep the soft furnishings indoors, nice and warm over winter. Thanks.

I found that the foam type carpet cleaner works quite well too, dab it on without rubbing and leave it for a while.

I second the stain devil our rapido got folded down once on a wet day and when it was put up again the beautifull cream curtains I had made had mould spots all over but soaked off without a trace.
