We're coming back into the camping fold after a few years off for one reson or another, we have a Sunncamp TT which has developed some small mildew patches, a search on the web has shown an advertisement on UKC for Oggie Tent Cleaner and Reproofer, has anybody used it, is it any good ???

Alternatively what other suggestions for treating and cleaning mildew.

Matt, Never used it myself but there is a review under the "Feature/Tips" section above.

Hi

We had some mildew on one of the bedroom liners on our fc.  After doing a search on ukcs I found out that milton was good, which is used to sterilise baby's bottles.  We tried it last weekend and it worked, took the mildew off straight away.  The fabric we used it on was very light cream though, not sure if it would lighten darker fabric.

I had alot of mildrew on my Vango Diablo 600.  Put tent up, brush mildrew, then mix milton fluid with water in squeezy bottle.  Spray to effected area and leave to dry.  I only did the inner so there was no need to re-seal etc.  Previously read on this site that once it gets hold it can go through the whole tent, also not good for your chest.  The milton will kill the pores and prevent spreading.  It definately works, easy to do and cheap to buy.  I have had no problems since.  Good Luck.
