For Gawds sake stop breathing!!

If you have tried all the cleaning products available it might pay you to go the industrial route and hire a steam cleaner or call in a car upholstery cleaning specialist :D

Yes, using it can be a bit hit and miss. To get that link I posted was by clicking 'Advanced search', search word "mo*ld" (wildcard * to cover different ways peeps spell it), selected 'Camping' forum, selected 'Topics only'.

It can take a bit of getting used to..........

Bleach normally kills mould too. After that you need some kind of mould resistent spray or coating. Make sure its actually vented up there too.
