Hi, can anyone advise. Our tent Vango Idaho 600 got completly soaked the last time we used it.  Unamused and drenched we went home only we forgot to dry the tent out.  Took it out the bag tonight to clean it before we go out again on Friday and it is disgusting.  It has spots of mould all over the front.  What is the best way to get this out???

Firstly, DO NOT use any form of soap product on it, you need to kill the mildew spores with a solution of Miltons sterilising fluid, (or make a 5% solution of hydrogen peroxide. (125ml in 5 litres of water.) then wash it as best you can using warm water, if it needs reproofing after you have tested it by soaking it, there are reproofing agents like Nikwax or Fabsil, good luck
