Hi people , just returned from france and we have got to clean the tent as we seem to have loads of little brown spots everywhere - I am not sure whether they are possibly tree sap or miniture bird s**t.

I was wondering what people advise using to clean tents ( it`s a monty 6 )

Nikwax also do a tent wash now - I am off to get some today to deal with 2 extremely muddy tents we brought back with us from a festival last night!

Water and a sponge is all you should use.
