Mildew stains

Post by Brenhden »

Hi hive mind,

I have a canvas tent that the inner (which is whitish) has a little mildew staining. I've tried oxy bleach and it's done nothing, I'm getting the big guns out now... I'm thinking of mixing some thick bleach in a hot bath and sending it in. Any tried it or know of a better idea?

Cheers

Bren

And now, Harry, let us step out into the night and pursue that flighty temptress, adventure.

Bleach will ruin it, if you have the time try wet and forget, but you need to leave it at least a week before rinsing off
