Hi, HG Mould Cleaner will work, one of my daughters blinds in her bedroom had become mouldy where is was wound up, i unrolled the blind and sprayed with this, 30 mins later all mould had disapeared and also has not grown back since, obviously you would need to remove the blinds in the caravan before using any sort of cleaner with bleach as you would not want it to get onto the other furnishings.  HG mould cleaner smells strongly of chlorine so should only be used in a well ventilated area.  I had previously tried other type of bleach cleaners but none worked except this. 

PS. It also works well in the bathroom at cleaning mould from grout and silicone.

If you download their brochure from their website, on the last page is a voucher to get money off at your local stockist.

Regards Janette

Hi, I had the same problem and I cleaned them with a flash wipes. I wiped them over left them for about 10mins, wiped them again and gave them a final rub with kitchen roll. worked a treat.  Also better than sprays as there was no chance of spillage so I did not need to remove them first.
