Just opened my Combi tt and the canvas smells really stale, had it a couple of seasons and its always been a bit whiffy. Its not a musty smell and there is no damp or mildew anywhere, I think its just an old smell. Does anyone know whether I can clean it or spray it with anything maybe febreze? Although old she`s totally waterproof and went through all that atrocious weather last year without even a small leak.

i would not spray anything on the canvas itself,but you could use fabeeze on the beds and so on,this will help when closed up.
the best thing for the canvas would be a good airing, several days up will help alot.
